Hi,

I receive your emails on security (How to avoid wire fraud, spot spyware, smash spam and more) and my concern is holding all my passwords in Firefox Lockwise on my Windows devices which are synched. If someone or some process gains access to one of my PC's they would also I presume gain access to all my passwords. Is this true? If so, can I implement password access to my Firefox Lockwise passwords on Windows machines?

Thanks for your thoughts and hopefully reply.

best regards, Terry

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Make sure you use the Primary Password on each device to encrypt the logins stored on this device.

Are you also syncing mobile devices ?

The password files are encrypted. Also, only someone that can access your computer account can get to your data files.
