Managing Passwords for Family Members

The best way to manage passwords for families is to use a family password manager. Keeper Family Password Manager gives each family member their own encrypted digital vault to securely store their passwords, along with files, photos, MFA codes and other information. All each member of your family has to do is enter their unique master password, which is the only password they need to remember, and they will have access to their personal stored records from the convenience of their phone, desktop or other internet-connected devices. A Keeper Family account allows you to have up to five vaults in total, and you can share your passwords and records safely with each other if you wish.

Why families should use a password manager

Simply put, password managers make your life easier and safer. It is essential for families to use a password manager for convenience and security purposes.

Think about your own family. You all have different passwords for a variety of accounts and websites, ranging from fun things like shopping or social media to serious things like banking. No matter what your login credentials are used for, you should protect each of your family members by using a family password manager. Don’t worry – every family member will get their own account, so your passwords will still be private from each other.

However, if you share the same streaming service account or subscriptions to shopping services as your family members, you probably will want to share your passwords. You can do this with Keeper Password Manager in a secure and encrypted way.  For example, Keeper’s one-time sharing will let you send credentials for a limited amount of time before it disappears from the recipient’s view. Consider how many times you have asked your parents or children over text for the streaming service password; with a Keeper Family plan, you can safely share your passwords within your family without any risk of cybercriminals intercepting your private data.

Why Keeper is the right choice for your family

The Keeper Family Plan comes with a variety of features that will make it effortless to manage passwords for your family. Each member of the family gets their own password vault, and no one else will have access to another family member’s vault. This prioritizes each family member’s security and protection of their private information. Let’s dive into what other features make Keeper the best option for your family to manage their passwords.

Easily share passwords and more with family members

When your family uses Keeper to manage your passwords, you will have the ability to share passwords, images and sensitive documents with your family members. For example, if your child needs a copy of their passport number, you can share the digital record from your vault with your child through Keeper’s secure and encrypted sharing process.

To make sharing even easier, you can create shared folders and add specific family members to them. With a shared folder, any record you add to the folder is automatically shared with the family members you added.

Protect your family from password-related attacks

With all of your family members’ passwords safely stored in their own digital vaults, Keeper will protect your family’s passwords from password-related attacks and data breaches. Cybercriminals try to guess login credentials to access your information, but with Keeper, your family’s private login information will stay private. Since Keeper can determine which accounts have reused passwords without ever actually seeing your passwords, it can notify you or your family members and encourage them to change their passwords to stronger and more unique options. 

Takes away the pain of remembering multiple passwords

Can you guess how many different passwords you use for your accounts? Luckily, when you use Keeper Password Manager, you don’t need to because it will remember all of your passwords for you. Keeper can store and autofill passwords on websites and apps when you’re ready to use them, so there is no need to remember any other passwords besides your master password.
