There’s been another big data leak of over 16 billion records, and that’s a great opportunity to do something you’ve probably been procrastinating on: Replace your website passwords that hackers stole because of some lax security.

Stay one step ahead by fixing a potentially serious problem now, before something bad happens.

I also highly recommend buying 1Password, which will warn you of these things as well as tell you if a password or site  has been compromised. It also will not fill in a password on a Phishing site.

I used to use LastPass until the hacking of them. Now I’m using RoboForm (which works better than LastPass) for the past few years. RoboForm also notifies if the password has been compromised. ​@MajorHavoc I’m going to look at 1Password probably for a backup password manager.
