Gabe: Hey folks. This is Gabe at Security Baron. We think that one of the most important
steps you can take at improving your cyber security is using a password manager. Today,
we're going to break down some of our favorites.

Gabe: Today, I want to give you our top picks for password managers in six categories. Best
overall, for families, for iPhones, Androids, Macs, and Windows. If you want to read a full
review of any of these password managers, you can check it out at securitybaron.com.

Gabe: First category we're going to jump into today is the best overall password manager
and we're giving the title to Keeper. Keeper uses a master password to protect that vault
of passwords that you have. You can even throw on multi-factor authentication to give you
an extra layer of security.
It has a dark Web scan to make sure that your credentials aren't out there on the murky
underbelly of the Internet and a highly-rated mobile application. At $2.50 a month for its
most basic plan, it's pretty affordable, especially considering all that Keeper can do. In terms
of setting it up, it was the easiest process we have for syncing passwords, went into Chrome
and with one click we were ready to go.
Speaking of devices, it has unlimited devices and unlimited storage with your Keeper plan.
If you want to fill in new passwords, you can do so with Keeper Fill, which will autofill
with new, stronger passwords for your various logins.
When it comes to security, Keeper is equipped with the industry-standard in password cracking
and encryption. It even lets you designate up to five emergency contacts, in case you
get locked out of your account. Because of its robust feature set and fantastic value,
we designate Keeper as our best overall password manager.

Gabe: The next category we want to move into is the best password manager for families
and here, we're giving it to Sticky Password. Sticky Password basically works for families
in two ways. It is very affordable over time.
If you decide as the patriarch, or matriarch or general arch of your family, you want to
have the same management system, you should buy the lifetime pass that you get with Sticky
Password.
Right now, it costs $149.99, but I'll be honest with you, they often run deals and then, you
can just buy into it for one user and have it for the rest of time. If you want to share
it within that password manager, you can do so. It's going to be pretty easy because they
have a helpful and extensive FAQ on the rights that you can give to various members of your
family.
I can go in, I can put in their information, and give them access to Netflix, so Bobby,
May, and Sally have access to Netflix. It's limited rights, so they can all see the password.
I can decide that my significant other needs the ability to have full rights, so they can
revoke the password to other people. They can revoke the password even to me.
That's another element that is illustrated really well by Sticky Password. When it comes
to having your family stick together, we're going to give the best password manager for
families to Sticky Password.

Gabe: The next category we're going to jump into is a personal favorite. It's the best
password manager for iPhones and here, we're going with RoboForm. With a nearly perfect
4.8 out of 5-star rating in the Apple App Store, people have shown that it is a very
well-designed, intuitive mobile application.
Don't worry, you can still use it on a host of other devices, like Macs, Androids, and
Windows computers. In addition, RoboForm has excellent customer support with a live chat
option that's available from 9:00 to 6:00 PM Eastern Standard Time. When it comes to
security, it has industry-standard encryption too and multi-factor authentication. You can
get all of this for under $24.
When you look at that feature set and the nearly perfect score it gets in the Apple
App Store, we have to give RoboForm the number one spot when it comes to best password managers
for iPhone.

Gabe: Our next category for best password managers is best for Android users and that's
going to go to LastPass. LastPass has a phenomenal 4.6 out of 5-star rating in the Google Play
Store. We know that people are loving it because over 13 million people have used LastPass
around the world. It offers credit monitoring, so you can know if your identity has been
stolen.
Now, let's talk pricing. LastPass does give you a 30-day free trial, but if you want to
get an individual plan for one year, just $36, which breaks down to $3 a month. If you
want to get a family plan for up to six family members, it's just going to cost you $48 a
year or $4 a month.
Don't worry. In addition to supporting Android, it does support a host of different devices
and browsers. When it comes to getting peak performance out of your password manager and
your Android, we're going with LastPass.

Gabe: Calling all Mac users. The next category is best password manager for Macs and the
winner here is Password Boss. You're going to download the Password Boss application
for Mac.
It is an intuitive, aesthetically pleasing desktop application that gives you a lot of
flexibility in terms of running a dark Web scan, getting a snapshot that illustrates
your current security level, and it even makes it easy to import your passwords from various
browsers. Beyond simply importing and managing those passwords, you can also manage various
identities and secure notes.
Beyond that, Password Boss gives you the ability to store passwords on an unlimited number
of devices with unlimited storage. You also get the industry standard in password cracking
and encryption with two-factor authentication. All of this comes at $2.50 a month for the
most basic plan.
When it comes to the best password manager for Mac, we have to go with Password Boss.

Gabe: The final category we're going to look into today is the best password manager for
Windows and that goes to Enpass. You're going to download the Windows application.
You'll note that it has a lot of depth to what initially may appear simple. Just the
sheer number of categories alone to help you remember the types of things you should have
in your password manager is actually super helpful. Beyond that, it has the ability to
audit your passwords and generate new passwords, as you go through and see how old, weak, or
repeated your passwords may be.
Signing up is really easy. You don't need anything except the ability to make up a master
password. Enpass has a super strict privacy policy. They do not store any of your information
on their servers. They don't even look at any of your location or device identifiers.
Because everything is stored locally, it is a one-time, flat-rate lifetime fee per device
at $11.99. Because of that functionality and affordability, we're giving the best password
manager for Windows to Enpass.
