Chrome will soon make it possible to send a password in a secure way
Already relatively complete, the password manager of Google Chrome will obviously be equipped with a promising new feature allowing you to send your passwords.
It is already possible to simply copy (then paste) a password. We must therefore imagine that this is a new, more secure solution.
Soon the secure sending of passwords from Chrome?
If you don’t use a dedicated password manager, and you use Google Chrome as your primary browser to remember them, here’s something you might be interested in. If you happen to share your passwords. It’s starting to get a lot of “if”, but still.
Indeed, in the “…” menu accessible next to each password in the dedicated settings menu, a new entry has appeared (not for all users, however). In addition to deleting, editing and copying a password, it now seems possible to send them.
This button does not react yet when clicked, impossible to know exactly how it works. But we imagine that it is a more secure solution than the simple copy already proposed. In particular, it remains to be seen whether it will be necessary for the person who receives the (encrypted?) password to also use Google Chrome or another service from the firm.

Google Chrome no longer has to prove its qualities as a stable, fluid, fast, secure, ergonomic and multifunctional browser. Its interface and its mode of use are suitable for all audiences, inexperienced as informed. Criteria that still allow it today to dominate the market on a global scale and to pursue a development that inspires the new standards of the Web. But Chrome is not immune to a much less formidable aspect: its collection and marketing of personal data which makes it a serious threat to the privacy of Internet users, especially when the browser is used in conjunction with other Google services. . If respect for confidentiality must, for you, take precedence over the rest, we advise you to turn to Brave or Firefox, more reliable alternatives and satisfactory performance.
