Proton Pass, one of the best password managers, has launched a new family level to simplify login management and storage for both parents and children.
The Pass Family plan is offered for a limited time at $3.99 per month (billed annually) and includes all the features of the Pass Plus plan, but for six users instead of one.
Families will be able to benefit from integrated two-factor authentication (2FA), secure vault sharing and link sharing, dark web monitoring and advanced account protection, all managed from an admin panel.
Password protection for families
The new Proton Pass family tier makes sharing login credentials for streaming services and household accounts easier and more secure, while also providing vaults for storing personal information, such as emergency contact details, that can be shared with other users. Each user account is segmented based on a unique email address to limit data leaks and identity theft.
Password sharing has quickly gone from a major security no-no to a fact of life, especially within families. Statistics show that 43% of Americans share at least one password with someone else, highlighting the need for secure password sharing tools.
“Password sharing among family members is common, but it also exposes them to significant cybersecurity risks,” said Son Nguyen Kim, Product Lead for Proton Pass. “The Pass Family plan offers families a safer, more organized way to manage their online identity, combining Proton’s high standards of privacy and security with easy-to-use features that anyone can use.”
