We know many members are using Mercury 5 to store lender passwords. Please note this will feature will not be available in Mercury Nexus and we will be removing it from Mercury 5 on 1 September 2021.
So how are you supposed to remember your strong, unique passwords?
We recommend using a password manager to keep track of your passwords.
A password manager is an online tool that creates unique passwords and auto fills the credentials every time you revisit the site. Password managers also allow you to safely share passwords with team members and clients, with the ability to quickly edit and revoke access as required.
When choosing a password manager you should always:
- Conduct research to ensure the password manager is from a reputable vendor
- Conduct research to ensure the password manager is maintained by the vendor with regular security updates
- Protect the password manager with its own strong and memorable passphrase.
The most popular password managers in Australia include LastPass, Keeper, Dashlane, 1Password and NordPass.
