Kevin Mitnick Password Manager Hack Demo

Kevin Mitnick, KnowBe4's Chief Hacking Officer, reveal the real risks of weak passwords.

We strongly recommend that you use a password manager to reduce password reuse and improve complexity, but you may be wondering if it’s really worth the risk. Is it safe to store all of your passwords in one place? Can cybercriminals hack them? Are password managers a single point of failure?
