Since you were talking password managers, and I asked in the android thread with no luck, I figured I'd ask here. I use Password Safe. I started keeping my safe on my Android phone because I needed to access my passwords on multiple computers. I used to be able to just hook it up, use USB Mass Storage to access the phone like a drive, and open my safe. That doesn't work the same way with my new phone, since it uses MTP; Password Safe doesn't want to access it from the phone, possibly because it's a device and not a drive, so there is no path? I'm not honestly sure. I could copy it each time I wanted to use it, but the idea is to consolidate the location so I don't accidentally overwrite some new entry by mistake. Is there a way to restore or replicate my old functionality with Password Safe? While I would like to avoid migrating, I will if I have to, and would appreciate any suggestions for what to migrate to. (I see mention of KeePass as an open source option, which I will look into.)

I guess I will mess with Drive to see if Password Safe will play nice with it.DeaconBlues posted:Is the Password Safe file encrypted? I believe Password Safe encrypts by default? I mean, I don't see an option that says "encrypt vault" but Wikipedia says it encrypts. EVIR Gibson posted:Does your password storage app use certs as well along with password auth? I'm sorry, but I don't fully understand what this means.

Crossposting with Haus of Tech Support: Magnetic North posted:I've been thinking of doing a 'security refresh' on my home infrastructure, based on a few pieces of random advice I've accumulated over the years. Now, I don't know if they are sensible or not, so I'd be interested to hear the thread's thoughts on these. In descending order of "likelihood I will try them" are: I got some answers for 2, 3, and 4 but I am honestly most curious about 1. I've wondered about it for a while, but since I am going to be starting with a new employer in a bit, now seems to be the time to seek out answers about that.

Subjunctive posted:Protect your personal stuff from overzealous monitoring by work’s management software? (Possibly an easier way than splitting your network, but I can see the appeal.) Mostly this. My other computers are usually off when I am working, except my smartphone, so they probably aren't using much bandwidth. I'm unaware of what they could "see" but it's not like I do anything I'm terribly worried about them seeing either.

Sickening posted:We still trying to focus on password length and complexity like it’s a worthwhile venture. As a person who knows nothing: there must still be some minimum threshold of basic complexity to avoid low-level attacks, right? Or can it literally be loving "cat" nowadays because everything is leaks?

zer0spunk posted:I'm going to pick 2 fido keys to add as recovery options. I have not heard of fido keys before now, but I had been thinking about some form of backup to get into accounts if there were an issue. Anyone have a trusted resource on these? Sure, I can look at Google and Youtube but I have no idea who actually knows anything.

Wasn't sure where else to post this. Anyone know of a trusted modern guide to dealing with being party to a data breach? (Meaning your information is out there, not you worked for a company that had one.) I haven't kept up with this information for the last 12 years or so. I'd typically just Google it, but I'm a little afraid of how far the misinformation machine might have extended, and I'm being relied on to get the information for someone else who was also affected.

Thanks Ants posted:Two days a month is closer to my definition of "hybrid" than 2/5 days a week being in-office. Yeah especially if those 2 days are with your actual team and not random chucklefucks I never ever interact with, or worse yet, everyone.
