My name is Darren Guccione.
00:07
I'm the CEO and co-founder of Keeper Security.
00:10
We're a cybersecurity software company headquartered in Chicago.
00:14
Password managers are tools that enable
00:16
you to track, store, protect, and share,
00:19
as well as manage passwords for any application, website,
00:23
or service.
00:25
Why is this so important?
00:27
Because more than 80% of the time,
00:29
when there's a data breach, it's the result
00:31
of weak or stolen login credentials, i.e.
00:34
passwords and usernames, that are harvested on the dark web.
00:38
There's over 20 billion stolen login,
00:41
what we call T-pairs, i.e. a username and password,
00:45
that are transacted, i.e.
00:46
bought and sold, by and among cyber criminals
00:49
to propagate attacks.
00:51
So when you use a password manager,
00:53
you log into it with one master password or your biometric,
00:57
i.e. a fingerprint or your face ID.
01:01
And this allows you to quickly access, organize, and secure
01:06
all of your passwords and private information
01:08
to protect you against the cyber criminal,
01:11
and at the same time, allow you to quickly log in--
01:14
and I mean fast--
01:16
into any website application and system.
01:19
One of the other things that you also can set
01:21
is what we call two-factor authentication.
01:24
Two-factor authentication is something that you have,
01:27
and something that you know.
01:29
So for example, if you have a password and a biometric,
01:32
those are two factors.
01:33
The reason why this is so important
01:36
is it is one of the most effective means
01:39
to protect yourself against a remote attack.
01:43
Because quite often, when you're being attacked,
01:45
it's not necessarily state cyber within your home
01:48
or within an organization, but it's
01:51
a remote attacker that may be located
01:53
in a different country who's trying to penetrate
01:56
one of your online accounts.
01:57
So having two-factor authentication
01:59
turned on for every application website that offers it
02:03
is absolutely critical and highly recommended.
02:06
So I would just say, stop worrying
02:09
about creating and remembering all
02:10
of those different passwords.
02:12
Use a password manager.
02:14
It's going to give you full end-to-end encryption
02:17
and protect you from cyber criminals.
02:19
Again, this is Darren Guccione, CEO and co-founder
02:22
of Keeper Security.
02:23
Thank you so much.
