For most people, it's almost impossible to properly manage passwords, and we are increasingly relying on passwords when considering dazzling devices and websites. Dashlane, a password management software provider founded in Paris but now headquartered in New York, said on Tuesday that it has acquired Passomatic, a password service that will build its own password-creation features in its own products in the coming weeks. The terms of the deal have not been disclosed. In response, the company’s competitor, LastPass, stated that it now offers an automatic password. This feature supports more than 75 websites.
Dashlane said that this feature will automatically update the password at a pre-set time interval. The interval may be 30 days, or if the site has been compromised, the user may request to change the password. Although some network security experts say that the password will eventually be replaced by other forms of identification technology, such as fingerprints. But the prospect of a complete disappearance of passwords still has a long way to go, and Dashlane actually finds a way to manage passwords for the entire network. Dashlane was founded five years ago by three engineers in Paris.
