1Password will also, by default (as with all new apps) send an email to advise a new app has been used to log into the account. The extension is installed in much the same way as any other Firefox extension and once complete (it doesn’t require a restart) allows access via the use of the 1Password username and master password. To start off with I will look at first installing the Firefox browser extension, this can be downloaded (as can all the apps) via the apps page accessible within the 1Password web console. Once the account has been created the first thing 1Password shows us is the web based password manager, from here most aspects of the service can be used although it should be noted 1Password also have multiple different apps and browser extensions to make using the service eve easier! 1Password themselves recommend using secure personal cloud storage to store these items meaning only the intended user can access them! To begin using 1Password means first navigating to the 1Password website and creating a new user account, this is a subscription only service although they do have a 30 day free trial to get started with:ĭuring the initial sign-up process it soon becomes clear that 1Password take security seriously with a secret code being made available for download, following this an emergency access kit is also made available which must also be downloaded and then both these items stored safely.
