    I’ve set a client up to use LastPass password vault, and the question she asks is where to keep her master password. She wants to know if it is secure to allow her Mac to store it. Is it?

    Vera, I use 1Password so I don’t know if LastPass is exactly the same. For 1Password, I have a master password that I save on a password-secured document in my dropbox for easy access. The password to open the document is one I can recall without too much trouble. To log into 1Password all day, I use another password (not the master, obviously) that I can also recall. Lately I’ve been using a string of unrelated words and I try not to re-use passwords from one site to another when it’s a financial site. Short answer is that I wouldn’t let the Mac store it.

    Great seeing you in Savannah, Vera! Happy holidays!
