I have written before about the value of a password storing program, or password safe. The concept of a password safe is that you memorize one password or passphrase, fairly complex and hard to guess (which is why a phrase is sometimes better) and use that to unlock a database of all of your passwords.
The free Password Safe has been a favorite of mine for a long time. However, the desire to have a password safe on my Windows Mobile enabled cell phone has had me looking for alternatives that support such a device.
I found one. Steganos Password Manager supports Windows Mobile devices. It’s fairly inexpensive and very secure.
But I did read about an online password manager that seems like a contender for some people. NeedMyPassword.com promises to be simple, safe, secure and always free (non business version). They even have a mobile interface.
There is no excuse for lost passwords or someone guessing your password because it’s too easy. I don’t see where NeedMyPassword.com has a password generator, but Password Safe and Steganos Password Manager do.
