\"password-manager-windows-top\"<\/a>Computer security began even before the construction of the first modern computer system. Passwords and access codes have been used by militaries and governments all over the world for controlling who can get into what, where, and in some instance, even when. Time-lock safes existed before the ENIAC, and remote access passwords existed before the internet.

In the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, telephone numbers where the largest list of information any individual was expected to remember. They were the passwords to contacting your friends, family and businesses.

Contact lists and smartphones eliminated the need to memorize phone numbers and began remembering who your contacts were for you. <\/span><\/p>
