It should be noted that if you are using keypass or really any “on device password manager” to make sure you are laser focused on keeping it updated. The belief that it’s cryptography is military grade and not crackable ignores several documented vulnerabilities that have popped up with keypass in the past.

And yes I’m speaking from experience, one of our customers used keypass as their primary vault and bad actors had full access to all the keys to their kingdom. That was fun to deal with.

To be safe if you ever have reason to believe your PC keydb has landed in someone else’s hands it’s safest to treat any passwords in it as compromised as well.

Also mirroring what someone above said the emergence of 2FA has single handedly done away with 99.9% of the security bullshit I have to deal with.
