A gentle / reminder.

Don't let your browser save your passwords, use a full password manager.

The article misses one point... if you're using chrome and signed in to google, then it *does* prompt you with a password request, however, this comes with another attack vector. If your gmail password is compromised, then your passwords are too.

(myself, my chrome passwords are all fake - a sort of honeypot)

@0x56 In the settings section on Chrome based browsers you can set it not to offer to save passwords. I would also suggest you remember to sign out of your password manager when you are not there and change the settings in the password manager to re-prompt you for your password when you need to use it.

@0x56 @Mandypar alson most good pw managers have an auto lock after say 1min or 5mins it will lock
