When you visit the website in the future, it will automatically fill in the login form for you, eliminating the need for The trouble of remembering passwords and entering them manually.

Introduction to LastPass

LastPass, as its name suggests, with it, you only need to remember this "last password" (the master password of LastPass) to log in to your cloud password vault, and then log in to any saved logins through the LastPass browser extension Informational website. For students who often go to various sites that require login and have a lot of accounts, LastPass can greatly facilitate your Internet life. Say goodbye to the tedious input of username and password every time!

1. After installing LastPass, you will be prompted with the message "Save Site" when you log in to the website. After installing LastPass, you will be prompted with the message "Save Site" when you log in to the website.

In addition, I found that using LastPass to switch between multiple websites is also very convenient, haha. In addition to saving login information, LastPass also provides functions such as filling in form information. You can save some commonly used personal information such as address, zip code, username, password, email address, etc., so that you can call it up at any time without having to fill it in every time. Enter manually.

LastPass Features

Cross-browser support:

LastPass's password management extension supports the five major browsers (IE, Chrome, FireFox, Opera, Safari) and cross-platform support (Windows, Mac, Linux). It can not only securely manage and synchronize passwords, but also help you Quickly fill out login forms. In addition, paid premium users ($1 per month) can also use mobile versions for iOS, Android, Windows Phone, BlackBerry, etc. to use their own password vault. But if you don’t need to use the mobile phone, then you don’t have to pay and can always use it for free.

Password cloud synchronization:

Since the LastPass password library is stored on a cloud server, even if we reinstall the system or use a different browser in the future, as long as we download LastPass again and log in with our own account, we can directly log in to various websites without entering a password. Yes, very convenient! No matter where you are, as long as you have a browser and access to the Internet, you can manage your passwords through the web interface.

LastPass security:

With LastPass, you can generate a random and complex password for each website, so that even if the password of one website is leaked, it will not affect other website accounts. Anyway, LastPass can automatically log you in, and you don’t need to go there at all. Memorize that complex password. Of course, users must ensure the security of LastPass passwords, otherwise if the LastPass password is compromised, all website passwords will be compromised.

LastPass uses the HTTPS protocol, and the passwords saved on the server are encrypted by the AES 256-bit algorithm. AES is an encryption algorithm used by the U.S. federal government and has extremely high security and reliability (introduced by Wikipedia). Unless Someone else knows your LastPass master password, otherwise, even if the LastPass server is compromised by a hacker, they won't be able to get our password.

Of course, no matter how strong the security and unbreakable system LastPass has, X-Force is still a little nervous about saving all his passwords and information with others, so I still recommend only using LastPass to save general websites. For information involving property or more important login information, it is still recommended to use the most primitive method-the human brain or paper and pen recording. In any case, using LastPass to provide automatic login for a large number of not-so-important websites does have great value.
