LastPass Secure Notes Keep Your Digital Life Safe and Organized

As your digital life expands, so does the critical information that you need to keep secure.  Anything you want to keep safe and accessible, which isn’t a traditional username or password, is perfect to add as a Secure Note in the LastPass vault.  Secure Notes enable you to keep all your (and your family’s) important documents safe with a digital copy that you always have on hand whenever you need it. Think health insurance cards, social security cards, driver’s licenses, COVID-19 vaccination cards, and more.  LastPass uses the strongest encryption available and operates on a zero-knowledge security model, which means your LastPass vault is locked with a key (master password) that is never sent to us. So all the information in your vault is secure and hidden (even from us).   Here’s just a few reasons to love Secure Notes:

• Declutter your wallet: Carrying around a physical copy of every membership card, loyalty card, and important note gets cumbersome and messy. Removing these from your wallet while still always having them securely on you in LastPass helps you declutter your wallet and better organize your life.
• Convenient organization: Add, edit, and search your Secure Notes, all from the LastPass Vault.
• Made for sharing: Give friends or family access to any Secure Note. You can share one-to-one or add it to a Shared Folder to sync with several people at once.
• Add attachments: You can save photos, PDFs, documents, and more.
• Sync anywhere: Easily access your Secure Notes from any browser, our mobiles apps, or the web vault.
• Customize: Build your own Secure Note template and add the fields you want.

How can I use Secure Notes to keep my digital life organized?

The possibilities are endless but read on for some of the most common ways that Secure Notes can organize your digital life.

• Wi-Fi password: Looking up and sharing your Wi-Fi password will be simple and seamless when you put this information in Secure Notes. 
• Driver’s license: Our wallet and smartphones are synonymous these days, but it’s still a good idea to have a record of your license backed up should you ever need to look it up or replace it. 
• Passport: Having a back-up copy on hand makes requesting a new or replacement passport if ever lost or stolen much easier. 
• Health information: Keep your health insurance information in Secure Notes and even attach photos of your card for easy reference. Be sure to add your COVID-19 vaccination card too!
• Memberships: Whether it’s for your local grocery store or your gym, or that loyalty card you use once a year, you can now keep them organized in one place.
• Security questions: Did I choose my first pet or the pet I liked the most? Keep all those answers in one place.
