Name of Tool: 1Password
URL: https://1password.com/
Price of Tool: $4.99/mo for individual user
Pros:
- Uses a dual‑key model so if the master password is compromised, the secret key is required.
- Password autofill for apps and browsers.
Cons
- Costs money to use, must have a subscription.
- Requires an account and relies on cloud sync for storage.
Ease of Use: Easy – Moderate. Appears to be easy to use and has built in support, however the integrations and security seem very in depth and high level. May be tough to start up but but easy to use.

Name of Tool: Bitwarden
URL: https://bitwarden.com/
Price of Tool: $1.65/mo for individual user, billed annually
Pros:
- Zero-knowledge encryption meaning no servers can read your private information.
- Password autofill for apps and browsers.
Cons
- Lacks a feature similar to 1Password’s secret key.
- Autofill extensions required that can increase complexity.
Ease of Use: Moderate. Requires more in depth set up compared to 1Password as it gives users more options and flexibility.
