Recently I got inspired (paranoid ?) by my boss who cares a lot about software security. Previously, I had almost the same password on all the websites I used, I had them synced to google servers (Chrome user previously), but once I started taking software security seriously, I knew the biggest mistake I was making was to have a single password everywhere, so I went one step forward and set randomly generated passwords on all online accounts and stored them in a keystore.
I then enabled 2FA authentication on some important services (GMail, GitHub, Twitter, DO) and adopted the policy to never login to my browser’s sync features. Doing that, I realize that the browser is just a commodity, it doesn’t matter which browser I use as long as I can log into my online accounts and of course a browser that actually works.
I am pretty sure there are many things that I could still improve around my computing patterns, which I will over time.
Motto: software security over convenience.
