Take the Time to Randomise Your Evernote Password
I won’t harp on too much about the recent security breach with regards to Evernote as it has received sufficient coverage. However, if you do happen to use a password for this service that is common with other services you use then you should seriously consider using a random password across all websites that you use and Evernote at the very least.
As I have previously recommended, LastPass is a fantastic solution for password generation and storage and is robust against attacks against itself. Plus, you can secure it with Google Authenticator with apps available for most smartphones and tablets or the ability to fall back to SMS if your devices are unsupported.
Of course, remembering your passwords can be a pain but if the passwords are only required for the initial login and subsequently saved then this should be a relatively minor inconvenience.
