Frequently asked questions

What if I forget my master password?

Most password managers offer account recovery options, but prevention is key. We’ll help you choose a memorable yet strong master password and document recovery steps securely.

Do you see or store my passwords?

No. We guide you through the setup process, but you remain in control at all times. We never see or store your master password or account credentials.

Which password manager do you recommend?

We typically recommend 1Password for families and small businesses due to its ease of use and strong security. Bitwarden is excellent for tech-savvy users and open-source advocates. We’ll help you choose based on your needs.

Can you set up MFA for my elderly parents?

Absolutely. We specialise in user-friendly setups and will train both you and your parents on how to use their password manager and MFA securely.

What happens if I lose my phone with the authenticator app?

We’ll set up backup codes and recovery methods during the session so you can regain access even if your phone is lost or stolen.

How often should I change my passwords?

With a password manager and MFA enabled, you generally only need to change passwords if they’re compromised in a breach. We recommend reviewing your accounts every 6–12 months.
