It is important that passwords are not left out. This includes, but is not limited to dry erase boards, sticky notes, or anywhere else that can be seen. Spreadsheets are used by many as a way to keep track of passwords, but spreadsheets do not offer a easy way to manage a few dozen or few hundred passwords. Trying to sync passwords and keep track of which passwords have changed or is due to be changed, can be a nightmare using a spreadsheet.
If you need assistance managing several passwords, I would recommend a tool called KeePass. KeePass is a free open source password manager, which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way.It is very simple to use, and allows you to organize and store passwords for everything. It can also be ran from a flash-drive.
KeePass will allow you the ability to segregate work and personal passwords in separate categories, or separate databases, and secure all those passwords with one master password. You also have the ability to sync passwords and keep track of which passwords have changed or is due to be changed. If are like me and need your passwords on the go, you can run KeePass on ALL devices (i.e., Android, iPhone, Windows, and yes Blackberry).
