RE: I Just Had The Biggest Scare Of My Life

I did think about putting my user names and passwords in a file on a flash drive. I also have another computer that is offline. I could probably duplicate the file on it with that information.

Sort:  

Google drive has been repeatedly compromised for hive keys over the years.
Storing keys in 3rd party software, especially for profit corporate software, is unlikely to be a good idea.
Local backups, even printed ones, are safer, imo.

I'm thinking that if I put my user names and passwords on my other computer's hard drive, I cannot go wrong inasmuch as that other computer is offline. Then I could copy them to a flash drive from that offline computer, because then there would be no way of anyone getting a hold of them as long as I never plug that same flash drive into my online computer.
