Your digital empire is fractured. Your games are on Steam. Your anime? Crunchyroll. Your fave shows are split between Netflix, Hulu, HBO, and Disney+. Watching content on multiple platforms is a hassle — but keeping track of all those accounts is a nightmare.
Sadly, you can’t force the above companies to reforge their services into a single account. But you CAN do the next best thing — reduce the login process to just one secure password. And the key to that is NordPass, the free password manager from the makers of NordVPN.
One password to rule them all
Normally, using the same password across multiple websites is a surefire way to get yourself hacked. A single data breach puts your whole digital empire at risk — the first thing hackers do with a set of legit credentials is try them out on all other popular services.
To get around this problem, NordPass mixes things up a little. You still have different credentials for each platform — you just don’t have to fill them out anymore. Instead, NordPass remembers your login information and enters it automatically for you when prompted.
You only need to keep one secure password in your head — your NordPass Master Password.
One password manager to find them
The free version of NordPass lets you keep the password manager running on one device at a time. Basically, when you log in somewhere else, your previous NordPass device will automatically log you out.
But that doesn’t mean you have to confine yourself to just one device. NordPass keeps your accounts up to date between devices, keeping your laptop, smartphone, and other smart gadgets in sync. NordPass has native apps for all major operating systems, including Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android — there’s even a web version for popular browsers.
One encrypted vault to bind them
NordPass keeps all your credentials safely in your NordPass vault — a special storage space secured with xChaCha20 encryption. This vault was designed using zero-knowledge architecture, meaning no one — not even the app’s creators — can peek inside without your unique Master Password.
But passwords aren’t the only things you can store in your impregnable vault. You can add notes, credit card details, recovery codes, and even passport information for safekeeping, letting you keep important information handy without putting it at risk. The items you place in your NordPass vault are automatically encrypted and sent to NordPass servers for syncing with your other devices.
NordPass Premium: The return of the king
The free version of NordPass is a great steward to your passwords, but NordPass Premium? NordPass Premium is the rightful king returned.
So what sets NordPass Premium apart from run-of-the-mill password managers? For starters, you get the ability to safely share passwords with people you trust. Simply choose an item in your NordPass vault, enter the email address of another NordPass user, et voila — they get an encrypted copy of the credentials delivered to their NordPass app, ready for use.
NordPass Premium also offers useful features to improve your security online. Its Data Breach Scanner constantly scours the internet for data leaks with your information, warning you if you need to take action. On the other hand, the Password Health tool lets you know if any of your passwords (such as the ones you created before NordPass) are weak and need to be updated.
Finally, NordPass Premium lets you run the app on up to six devices at the same time, greatly reducing the fingerwork needed to manage your digital empire. No need to keep logging in anymore — now NordPass will stay active on all the accounts you use frequently.
As of writing, the NordPass Premium subscription starts from just $1.69 per month.
Other apps of power by Nord Security
Your online security doesn’t stop with NordPass. The creators of NordPass have forged other apps to keep you safe and make your online life better.
NordVPN is the world’s fastest virtual private network, designed to protect your privacy and keep your online traffic out of the hands of strangers. Connecting to a VPN server is like slipping on the One Ring — it immediately hides your virtual location and shields your online activities from prying eyes (including your ISP).
NordVPN doesn’t keep logs of what you do — your business online is strictly your business.
NordLocker, meanwhile, offers secure cloud storage for your files and backups. The app lets you safely access or upload sensitive documents anywhere, on any device. Anything you store on NordLocker Cloud is automatically encrypted, making it near-impossible for anyone else to decipher. NordLocker also lets you encrypt files right on your device for safekeeping.
