I’ve written and published two new security articles as part of the Yahoo! Contributor Network. The first is about reducing your digital footprint, which is something I’ve been interested in for a while now. If you aren’t careful, a lot of information about yourself can be found online. Some of it might be true, some of it might be false, but most of it you probably don’t want lingering in search engine results. My article will tell you how to best map your digital footprint, and then how to go about reducing it.

The second article is on the top 5 online password managers, something every sensible person on the Internet should have. With so many different websites, you can either have the same password (highly insecure) or generate a unique password for each. Online password managers mean you don’t have to remember all your passwords, though as I’ve pointed out before, you can generate highly secure and easy to remember passphrases for the most secure sites you visit.
