Password Storage

#1 Post by ian16th » Tue May 14, 2019 12:49 pm

I seem to be getting a lot of invitations from services that want to securely store all of my passwords.

I have a bit of a paranoia about other people handling my data. I trust no one but ME!

So what I set up, many moons ago is a simple system.

I use Private Disk Light from here.

It is FREE! and so appeals to my Yorkshire blood.

With Private Disk Light, I set up an encrypted virtual disk.

In this encrypted virtual disk I keep several things, one of which is a simple MS Word file of my ID's and passwords.

If required, I have setup such a disk on a thumb drive, and included a copy of the download, so that I can install the utility on any Windows PC.
