Stay safe and secure online with an encrypted and open-source password manager.

|
## Password Best Practices
|
|
|
|
- Always use unique passwords. Don't make yourself a victim of "[credential stuffing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credential_stuffing)".
|
|
- Store an exported backup of your passwords in an [encrypted container](/encryption) on another storage device. This can be useful if something happens to your device or the service you are using.
|
|
- If possible, store [Time-based one-time password (TOTP)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_one-time_password) tokens in a separate [TOTP app](/security/multi-factor-authentication/#authenticator-apps) and not your password manager. TOTP codes are generated from a "[shared secret](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_one-time_password#Security)". If the secret is obtained by an adversary they can generate TOTP values. Typically, mobile platforms have better app isolation and more secure methods for storing sensitive credentials.

!!! warning
|
|
|
|
KeepassXC stores its export data as [comma-separated values (CSV)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values). This may mean data loss if you import this file into another password manager. We advise you check each record manually.
