7 Credential Manager for HP ProtectTools
(Password Manager)
Logging on to Windows, websites and programs is easier and more secure when you use the Password
Manager.
Password Manager allows you to set up the logon screens of websites and programs for quick and
secure access. First, Password Manager learns about your logons and the specific data as you type in
the input boxes of each logon screen. Then, once you are at a logon screen, after verifying your identity,
Password Manager fills in and submits the data automatically.
For even faster access, you can display a menu of your logons by simply using a configurable Hot key
combination (Ctrl+Windows+H is the default). On the menu, simply select a logon, and Password
Manager will launch the website or program, navigate to the logon screen and log you in automatically.
To verify your identity you will use your HP ProtectTools for Small Business credentials, such as your
Windows password. This means that you will use the same credentials to log on to all logon screens
you have set up. You can therefore create stronger passwords that you don't have to write down or
remember, and keep your accounts more secure.
Password Manager lets you see at a glance whether any of your passwords are a security risk and can
automatically generate a strong, complex password to use for new sites.
With Password Manager you can view your logons and passwords, and edit them at any time. Many
Password Manager features are also available from the Password Manager icon that displays whenever
the focus is on the logon screen of a program that has been set up or on any website logon screen.
Clicking on the icon displays a context menu where you can choose from among the following options.
For web pages or programs where a logon has not yet been created:
