Use the “passwords” feature to check if one of yours is compromised. If it shows up, never ever reuse those credentials. They’ll be baked into thousands of botnets etc. and be forevermore part of automated break-in attempts until one randomly succeeds.
Don’t download shit from random websites… make sure its from legit places…
My university, 23andMe, Transunion, Equifax, CapitalOne, United Healthcare…
You shouldn’t download KeePass from any of those.
Legit means the keepass website… those are not legit places to download the password manager
Yeah UHC sold my data as soon as I was put under their coverage. Now I get so many phishing emails pretending to be from UHC.
These kinds of breaches are at the site level. Not much you can do as a regular user if the company doesn’t hash or salt their passwords, for example.
I believe they are replying to the article you posted in regards to the download from legit sites comment, not the fact that the sites have shit web practices (which while correct is a different thing).
To the people who didn’t read the article posted in the comment prior, basically the software installed wasn’t the legitimate software, it was a modified software that was a trojan that was forwarding passwords stored in the keepass database to a home server.
That’s not something that the sites are going wrong, nor is it the password managers fault. That’s fully the users fault for downloading a trojan.
Not from what the article says
