Dashlane Now Allows You To Change All Your Passwords At Once
Time and again we hear about hackers stealing passwords in huge numbers. Whether it is a <a href="https://www.crazyengineers.com/threads/hackers-shutdown-computers-at-sony-pictures-release-filenames-of-stolen-data.77506">Hackers Shutdown Computers At Sony Pictures & Release Filenames of Stolen Data</a> or exploiting <a href="https://www.crazyengineers.com/threads/heartbleed-bug-public-urged-to-reset-all-passwords.74345">Heartbleed Bug: Public urged to reset all passwords</a>, internet users are constantly in danger. Any website, once compromised, requests the user to change his/her password immediately. Surely the user can do it for one website but for protection against a wide spread vulnerability like Heartbleed one has to undertake a painstaking and time consuming task of changing each and every password. Keeping this in mind Dashlane, a popular password managing service has introduced a new feature that changes your account passwords in over 75 websites with a single click. The feature currently works on PC and Mac versions of Dashlane. Interested users have to register their email address <a href="https://www.dashlane.com/password-changer-beta" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">How Our Password Manager Works | Dashlane</a> to test this feature.
Once you get access to this feature, the service will detect if all your passwords are strong. If your passwords are weak it will ask you to change all your passwords at once. Once the button is clicked the system randomly generates strong passwords for every website account and applies them. If you have two-step authentication enabled in your account it will prompt you to enter the security code (sent to your mobile phone) or display the security question. In the future, the company is planning to include the one-click password system in its mobile apps and even change all your passwords at regular intervals.
Dashlane was able to introduce this feature to acquiring PassOmatic, the firm that had developed the one-click password change technology in the first place. Currently Dashlane is free to use on one device and you have to shell out $40 for using it on multiple devices.
