According to a survey conducted on behalf of Bitwarden earlier this year, 1 in 3 Americans reported being part of a data breach in the last 18 months. Having a secure password is the first step in protecting your digital assets.

“The Do Your Part, #BeCyberSmart initiative is focused on how we all can put our best effort forward when it comes to cybersecurity best practices, which we know is important because of the serious password-related breaches we’ve seen in the news this year,” said Bitwarden CEO Michael Crandell. “Password management is a critical part of the solution and Cybersecurity Awareness Month gives Bitwarden another opportunity to arm consumers and companies with the information they need to make informed decisions and stay vigilant.”
