Password Manager in Firefox. Synchronization on multiple computers

    Task:
    There are a good hundred accounts on different sites. It is required to minimize the login / password (with one click), while:
    - Providing a way to synchronize data from accounts between your work and home computer
    - Observe all security measures to avoid password theft
    - The solution should be cross-platform

    Recently, I switched to Linux and successfully master all its charms, but at the same time and solve the problems arising in connection with the transition. So earlier, to automate the authorization process, I used portable AI Roboform ( Roboform 2Go), which I installed on a flash drive and accordingly all logins / passwords were stored on it, I could only remember the flash drive at home and enter the master password once, and then one click and I am already authorized on the site.
    And when I moved home on Ubuntu, I had to remember all the passwords, but laziness is the engine of progress and I was looking for a way out of this situation.
    First you need to install the Secure Login plugin, which works on the principle of Magic Wand in Opera, that is, using the password storage mechanism in firefox, it finds form fields for authorization and does not immediately insert a login / password, but waits for your command (by default Alt + N or click on the key in the status line), while it has a mechanism to avoid duplication of information, auto-complete fields of registration forms and protect against password theft through javascript and XSS. It also has the option to log into the site authorized immediately from bookmarks. firefox addon
    Next, install the Google Browser Sync plugin- This extension is designed to synchronize settings between browsers. After installation, you set a password (PIN) in order to decrypt the saved passwords and cookies. In the settings we can set synchronization for saved passwords, cookies, bookmarks, history of visited addresses, as well as open tabs and windows.
    Now once I enter the login \ password on the sites while at work, when I get home, I just enter the password (PIN) to start data synchronization between browsers and so I remain logged on to the site until the cookie expires.
    Plus we kill another second "hare" - now the tabs left open at work, after synchronization, you can open the house and continue surfing.

    Disadvantages:
    - you must have a Google account.
    - passwords are forgotten, because I don’t remember when I last entered them.
    The solution, in my opinion, is elegant and I am 100% satisfied with it.
    For manual synchronization, you can use the Password Exporter extension , which does export / import of passwords with the ability to encrypt the output xml file.
