[[!meta title="Managing passwords using KeePassXC"]]
|
|
|
Using the [<span class="application">KeePassXC</span>](https://keepassxc.org/)
password manager you can:
|
|
|
Store many passwords in an encrypted database which is protected by a single passphrase of your choice.
|
|
|
Always use different and stronger passwords, since you only have to remember a single passphrase to unlock the entire database.
|
|
|
Generate very strong random passwords.
