I agree that strong, unique passwords are essential for security. Saving passwords can be safe, but I personally prefer to keep everything compartmented. This means that if one account gets compromised, there's no way for an attacker to use that information to access my other accounts.
This is exactly why I think using a password manager is a bad idea. Even if it's well-protected and encrypted, there's always a risk of it being compromised. If that happens, all stored passwords could potentially be exposed at once. Keeping passwords separate and manually managed reduces the impact of a single breach.
I wish I could find my old article on phishing so I could contribute more to the discussion, but it seems to be lost in one of the older security newsletters.
Keep up the great work!
I can try and see if I can find it since knowledge is power and I'd like to read it. Wish we had a search feature for our posts as it'd make it much easier (at least I don't need to search through my 10,272 posts haha).

Awesome newsletter as always :) I'll try to kick my brain into gear so I can add something valuable.
Definitely, I have to agree. 😉
Sorry, dude, but I've not been successful. I've gone through all of the archived newsletters but most of them don't seem to have comments now, and I can't see it in your post history. The closest I can get is the comment below, but I'm not sure if that was the right one as I can't read it to check since it was a link to AHQ.

I did some searching as well and it looks like all the comments from Answers HQ have been removed. Thank you for taking the time to go through all of them. 🙂
