HOW TO : Know The Age Of Your Password

It’s a good idea to change your passwords frequently keeping into consideration internet security.It is said that longer you use the same password the less secure it tends to.

Thus Mozilla has came up with the add-on known as Password Age Visualizer. Through this add-on the user would be able to know from how long they have been using the same password.

You need to add the password in your Firefox profile. Based on that it would be able to track your password! The extension relies on data from Firefox’s password manager and displays how long you’ve been using any of your passwords. Of course, what it actually displays is how long has the password manager stored your password, it may have been in use long before that.

Thus you can change your password at regular intervals and enjoy internet security!
