What is Keeper Password Manager?
Keeper Password Manager is a robust password management tool that allows you to keep track of all of your work passwords in a secure vault and access them with a single password. Having to only remember a single password, allows you to create and use really strong and complex passwords for each and every account you have
Why did we switch from LastPass to Keeper?
After several LastPass data breaches of encrypted customer password vaults, Library and Technology Services has decided to suspend new Lehigh LastPass enrollment on January 3rd, 2023, and then later decided to switch to a more robust Password manager.
