This year’s findings of the World Password Day Global Survey showed nearly all respondents (90%) identify themselves as being ‘somewhat’ or ‘very’ familiar with password security best practices - but does being familiar mean putting into practice? Not quite. 84% of respondents admit to reusing passwords across more than one site, and 55% say they rely on memory to manage passwords. Learn more about the results on the Bitwarden blog.
For those who are ready to push beyond the basics of password management, there are a few extra steps you can take to enhance your account security even further, such as using a unique email address to strengthen your primary login credentials. Read the Bitwarden blog to learn more.

Many of today's employees are on their own when it comes to handling tasks like creating passwords for the services they use. When this happens, people generally resort to less than perfect choices, such as relying on web browsers to capture and store passwords. But is your browser really the right place to store all of that information? Many industry experts advise against this. Learn more about why companies are moving beyond browser-based password managers on the Bitwarden blog.
