1Password Password Management

An indispensable Mac application to help you manage your Internet logins and passwords securely. I don't know about you but I have so many logins and passwords for the various web services I subscribe to, that it has become a major effort to keep them all in check. The easy option is to use simple passwords or even to use the same password for different services but this is really dangerous if your password gets compromised. Mix in the multitude of browsers we also have available to us and things get very complicated.

I looked at 1Password from Agile Web Solutions back in December 2006 in show SCO0078 . It's a fantastic application that allows you to manage all your Internet logins and passwords using a single master password, securely encrypted in a special keychain. What's really cool is that this is integrated across most (all?) of the major Mac browsers enabling you to switch between browsers and still have access to all your logins and passwords. What's even better is that it's integrated with .Mac so you can backup all your logins and passwords using .Mac and even sync them to multiple machines.

1Passwd also has an automatic form filler built in that allows you to complete web forms with a single click - It even has the ability for you to store multiple "Personalities" that con hold different types of information to allow you to pick the right set of information for the required form.
