Ynglaur posted:One disadvantage of solutions in which you store your own encrypted password file is the growing threat of ransomware. Your password file does you no good if it's in the cloud auto-syncing with your desktop, and your desktop becomes compromised. Suddenly all of your passwords end up behind someone else's encryption. This is one of the reasons I prefer LastPass. That said, I'm sure someone will roll their own private cloud using FreeBSD or something else that ransomware generally doesn't bother targeting. Ideally speaking users should maintain an incremental backup solution if there are concerns about ransomware. Then it doesn't matter if your PC is hit even if it backs up again because you still have older versions of the files that you can restore from. If you don't have a true backup solution some free cloud hosts offer 30 day versioning as well, like Google Drive, so unless your PC gets hit with ransomware and syncs up and then you wait a month you'd probably be alright.
