QR code phishing rose 146% in the first quarter of 2026, and the reason is structural: a QR code hands the attack to a phone, where the mail gateway, the proxy, and the endpoint agent all stop watching. Now an eighth of them are not images at all.

Password managers remain the single best upgrade most people can make — and they have quietly become the most valuable thing on the endpoint. Infostealers, not vault cryptography, are the problem.
Read MoreBitwarden provides a transparent, audited platform that supports passkeys and TOTP seeds across all platforms. Secure file attachments are a Premium feature, not part of the free plan.
A privacy-centric manager from the Proton team. Its standout 2026 feature is integrated 'Hide My Email' aliases, allowing you to create a unique, anonymous email for every login directly from the browser extension.
Known for its polished UX and 'Watchtower' analytics, which flag weak and reused passwords and accounts missing two-factor authentication. Passkey support is well integrated across its desktop and mobile apps.
For high-security users who want 100% control. Your database is a local file on your hardware—no cloud, no subscription, and no central server to be breached.
Physical FIDO2 security keys. The key checks the origin of the site it is authenticating to, so a lookalike domain receives no usable credential. The strongest phishing-resistant option for high-value accounts, alongside device-bound passkeys.
The current federal password guideline, published in July 2025. It drops forced periodic rotation, sets a 15-character minimum for passwords used on their own (8 when combined with multi-factor authentication), and requires screening new passwords against breach lists.
A large, widely used database of leaked credentials. Check whether passwords you used before adopting a manager appear in a historical breach; the website is free, while API access requires a paid subscription.
A method for creating a master passphrase with physical dice and EFF's long wordlist. Six words give about 2^77 combinations, enough that brute-force guessing is infeasible with current hardware, and the result is easier to remember than a random string.
An open-source (AGPL-3.0) authenticator for TOTP codes with end-to-end encrypted cloud backups, synced across mobile, desktop and web. Codes can be exported and imported in bulk, and it also works offline without an account, so the second factor is not tied to one vendor.
An open-source (GPL-3.0) TOTP authenticator for Android. Codes sit in an encrypted local vault unlocked by password or biometrics, and backups are encrypted export files rather than cloud sync, so the second factor stays on the device unless you move it.
