Cyber security is one of the predominant risks we face in the 21st century. Although many people spend time worrying more about home break-ins than they do getting hacked, in all likelihood, your digital privacy poses a greater risk on a daily basis.

From banking details to health care data, identity information, or personal documents, skilled hackers have the capacity to capture your details, which can have extreme consequences. But there are steps you can take to prevent major and frequent risks. Shopping with the Mulberry browser extension is a great place to start. It allows you to view the product protection plans available for your items in real time, and ensures you get the maximum amount of coverage possible, all at an affordable price. When your items are protected from theft, it makes life a little less stressful.

In this post, we will provide some tools and methods you can use to avoid the worst outcomes when it comes to personal data risk and data breaches.

Why is it important to manage your passwords?

To mitigate the risks your personal data faces online, it's essential to create strong and randomized passwords that are not easy to predict or guess. Avoid using common terms like your pet or child’s name, which are easy to guess for anyone who looks at your social media profile.

How can you keep track of complex strings of numbers and letters when you create stronger passwords? That’s where a password generator or manager comes in. It tracks your passwords through encrypted stored data, so you don’t have to remember each and every detail. Here are some password tools we recommend.

LastPass Password Generator

The LastPass Password Generator tool will help create random passwords for you across all sites, and then save and store the passwords so they autofill when you log in on your devices. You can customize the features of the passwords you create by defining attributes that fit each site’s requirements, such as:

  • Uppercase or lowercase letters.
  • Symbols.
  • Numbers.
  • Easy to say or read.
  • Character length.

1password

This app stores your login details in a password vault that you can access from any device. Using dual-key encryption, it protects more than just your passwords, and covers your card and payment info as well. You can access the 1password login on their site and get a free trial to experiment with the app to see if it’s a good fit for you.

Dashlane extension

Dashline Password Manager is a browser extension that allows you to store an unlimited number of password and login details. By using the app across devices, you'll be able to login to your accounts with seamless simplicity. The app will also help you create strong passwords, autofill on frequently-used websites, and alert you if you've been exposed to a data leak or security risk.

NordPass Premium

NordPass offers free and premium versions of their app. When you use the premium version, they help you autosave and autofill, store credit card details, keep your login across devices, and detect weak passwords which could be putting your account or personal data at risk. Additionally, there's the ability to provide access to your passwords in the event of an emergency, as well as a full suite of benefits that will help keep your data secure.

Get total protection with Mulberry

Many people keep several of their main accounts with the same password for long stretches of time, which increases your risk of identity theft, hacking, and more. Remember to change Google passwords, email accounts, or bank passwords on a regular basis to reduce the risk of a security breach.

To increase the security of the items you purchase online, install the free Mulberry browser extension so you can view product protection plans as you shop.
