# 1- Manage Security

Essential: Prioritize security\* to protect your accounts and passwords. Don't underestimate the need for robust safeguards. I use a password manager that generates highly secure, lengthy passwords, taking centuries to crack. My top choice is a free app compatible with computers, tablets, and mobile phones:

BITWANDER  <https://bitwarden.com/>\
Consider this: if you think you don’t need a password manager app probably blockchain and decentralisation aren’t for you.<br>
