Your Thoughts
So your son works for nation bank and reminds you they have been know to be hacked. You are questioning his insight, with non entity on a public site, in hope someone will give you the answer you are looking for.

So our son’s roommate from college works independently for multinational companies, finding hidden finances, from those who don’t want to be found.

On his last visit, he said no password manager or not is beyond being hacked if someone chooses to do so. He suggested address book (yes paper) Change passwords monthly on important banking/credit accounts. No password should be close to the next.

To prove his point using his computer he accessed 3 of our accounts within 15 minutes.

So his view on password managers is, Thank you for using them, I just need to get into that account to open every account you have on that manager app
