Answer Key

Password manager

Section A: Quick Questions

B — Stores and fills in many passwords for you

A — By one strong master passphrase

A — Only you (and a trusted adult who helps you)

B — Choose 'Never' and log out when finished

A — They are a simple password manager built into the browser

Section B: Match the Pairs

master passphrase → The one strong phrase that unlocks a password manager, so you only have to remember this one

browser-saved password → A password that a web browser remembers and fills in for you on a website you have logged in to

A password manager stores many passwords behind one master passphrase that only you know → Vault: 40 passwords | Unlock with: purple-koala-sings-loudly

Ask a trusted adult for help when setting up a password manager or saving a password in a browser → Browser asks: Save password? -> Ask a trusted adult first

Master passphrase: 1234 → The master passphrase is weak and easy to guess. It should be a long, strong passphrase, because it protects every password in the manager.

Save password in browser on a shared school computer? Yes → Saving passwords in a browser on a shared device lets other people log in as you. Do not save them there, and ask a trusted adult if unsure.

Section C: Definitions

password manager — A tool that stores and fills in many passwords for you, kept safe behind one strong master passphrase that only you know.

Section D: Fill in the Blanks

manager.unlock(masterPassphrase)

passphrasesToRemember = 1

browser.save(site, password)

IF unsure THEN ask(trustedAdult)

IF passphrase == master THEN unlock()

Section E: Spot the Error

C — A single = stores a value instead of comparing. The password manager should check the typed master passphrase with ==, so the line should be: if enter == master:

B — The = is missing, so the password is never saved in the vault. It should be: vault["email"] = "Tr33!lamp"

D — The manager fills in each site's own saved password from the vault. The master passphrase only unlocks the vault and is never typed into sites. It should be: fill(vault[site])

B — The if line is missing its colon at the end. It should be: if need_help:

D — A browser-saved password needs both the site and the password. The pw is missing, so it should be: browser.save(site, pw)
