General

What is Avast Passwords?

Avast Passwords is a password and data manager that allows you to securely store sensitive information in one place. You can use Avast Passwords to quickly fill in web forms and access your online accounts.

Many internet browsers offer to store your identity information, however, this is not very secure and can be easily hacked.

What are the key features in Avast Passwords?

Avast Passwords offers several features to help you keep track of your passwords and sensitive data:

• Autofill forms and logins to save you time.
• Auto-capture passwords whenever you log into a new site.
• Generate secure passwords for you.
• Import your passwords from your internet browser(s).
• Sync data across devices via your Avast Account.

Why is Avast Passwords more secure than storing my passwords in my internet browser?

When you store passwords in your internet browser, they are stored on your device along with the information necessary to decrypt them and are therefore easy to hack. Avast Passwords stores your passwords with a much more secure level of encryption. Additionally, you can create a Master Password to further protect the data you store in Avast Passwords.
