“Bitwarden is currently CNET's top pick for the best password manager, thanks in part to its commitment to transparency and its unbeatable free tier.”
Privacy protections are tricky, and online accounts store your most valuable personal and financial information—which is why you need an end-to-end, encrypted solution that protects your privacy and keeps your digital life safe.
That’s why the Bitwarden Password Manager suggests strong, unique passwords for every account, then backs them up with two-factor authentication (2FA). It also securely encrypts and stores your passwords in an end-to-end encrypted vault, auto-fills them for you with a single click, and generates new passwords when you need them—right from your browser and without secondary steps.
Why choose Bitwarden as your internet browser password manager?
The Bitwarden Password Manager is secure and convenient. Here's what makes it stand out compared to other password managers:
Two-factor authentication
Bitwarden empowers its users to add an additional layer of security by setting up two-factor authentication, a secondary step in the login process that verifies your identity and ensures only you can unlock your vault.
Vault access on every device
Download Bitwarden and sync unlimited passwords across all your applications and devices. You’ll love the time (and frustration) you save with one-touch autofill and never resetting a password again.
Secure credential sharing
Create a family vault with a partner or your household to securely access logins, share passwords, and manage joint online accounts. Or use Bitwarden Send to share encrypted files or text with anyone through a secure link.
Password and username generator
Bitwarden makes it easy to generate strong and unique passwords and usernames. Using the generator tool keeps personal information like anniversaries and pet names out of your passwords, out of the dark web, and out of hackers’ hands.
Passkey storage and access
Bring passwordless convenience and security together with passkeys that are easy to create and make logins seamless. Bitwarden creates, saves, and syncs all your passkeys so you can use them wherever you need.
Zero knowledge, end-to-end encryption
Before data leaves your device, your vault is sealed with end-to-end encryption. That means only you can access, share, and organize items in your vault—even the Bitwarden team can’t unlock your protected data.
