How To Series: Download, Install, and Use Bit Warden
Learn how to set up and use Bitwarden. It's my top pick for a secure, open-source password manager that won’t cost you a dime. This guide covers the desktop app, and browser plugins.
In this blog post series, I will discuss and walk you through how to download, install, and use the password manager Bit Warden. It has a FREE version with basically everything you’ll need as a personal or even small business user, including the standalone desktop application and browser plugins for Firefox, Chrome, and Edge to assist you with logging into websites securely.
I will also walk you through how to use Bit Warden in Firefox.
Bit Warden is an open-source alternative to LastPass and even 1Password. I was a LastPass user for several years until the latest hack clarified the company’s mismanagement and the shocking details regarding the two large-scale hacks they allowed to happen that exposed user information.
A password manager is necessary to use the internet to store and use your login credentials for countless websites securely, and Bit Warden is an excellent choice. And no, there is NO risk for them to be compromised, which they detail HERE.
