If you trust someone with your passwords, their security needs to be very good – the popular online password bank LastPass has had some security problems recently and I have made my suggestions for an alternative way to store your passwords. Here is an opinion piece from Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols at The Register looking at another alternative:
Dump LastPass for open source Bitwarden • The Register
This solution comes with clients and web apps for the poplar operating systems, Windows, Linux, iOS etc and cloud web storage. Or for the really paranoid, with some technical expertise, you can build your own password server!
I am not endorsing this solution, just showing you alternatives exist. I still use encrypted OneNote.
