[QUOTE="xenithon, post: 865237, member: 467"] +1 on password managers. Safest option are the standalone versions (non-cloud-synced) though perhaps a tad less convenient as they do not sync across devices and platforms. But generally even cloud versions are safe. Also: - check out websites like [url=https://www.turnon2fa.com/]https://www.turnon2fa.com/[/url] for guides on how to enable multi factor authentication for many possible online sites and services. - register your email address(es) on [url=https://haveibeenpwned.com]https://haveibeenpwned.com[/url] to a) check and b) get immediate notification if your details are compromised in a known breach and disclosure of creds Finally just something to add around the topic - it is not the forums getting hacked, it is people using poor or downright sloppy security hygiene practices leading to their accounts being compromised.
