Ransomeware
After building computers for over 10 years, and seeing a huge number of fraud, and identity theft, and recent events that are not related to this subreddit it got me thinking and me asking questions about both Cyber Security, and Physical security of many "Facility" in America which contain a lot of personal information.Anyways about the Computer Security, I am rather concerned because many "Hospital" and "Doctors Offices" even "Police Departments" have been hit with Ransomware attacks, but my question is how secure are their networks really.Most Facility I have been in only have a few security guards, and all use (Dell Computers) which often have (USB Ports) on them, often they use "Intranet" for their secure network, and run at 5.0 GHZ, while letting everyone else use free public WI-FI, the concern I have is the physical access to these systems is easy enough for anyone to slip a (USB Computer), or Flash Drive into any of these computer systems because unused ports are not powered down, often no one is watching either.. So in theory how easy is it for a facility no names given to have "Ransomware" installed on their system by someone plugging in a USB Drive.. Or having private information of many stolen by someone who uses I think its called a USB Computer with malicious code.Often these computers are basic dell's without any type of real "Anti Virus" or security software installed or properly configured. Another true fact is I have seen at least (3 Routers) which are owned by different facility using (Default User Passwords) in the past was able to login to the entire network configuration page, although this is public internet and couldn't be used to steal information itself, it got me thinking about what if someone had a mini computer plugged in behind one of these computer systems and connected on the network just sending out information for months which could grant it access to the (Intranet) which is supposed to be the secure network no longer secure.Let alone the emploee who work there and could easily compromise persons information by accident, or on purpose.Am I right about this, or am I just too paranoid?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pL9q2lOZ1Fw&t=77s^ Like in this video...This doesn't include when people leave your personal information on a computer and anyone can just go look at it who enters the room next like at a "Dentist" for example, but it makes me feel so unsafe.This also brings up the subject on "RF ID" Cards being used for security on most facility, how many Hospital, even Police departments use these in America, as well as many other places, yet cloning a persons ID Card like shown in this video seems to be a serious secuirty issue, so why not have more secure authentication?

Need help choosing a p/w manager for windows+android
I was using DashLane. I want to like it, but it offers no biometrics functionality for windows like it's android app does.Are there any out there that do? Target functionality is: AES-256 bit, built in password generator, biometrics functionality for both windows and android (desktop has fingerprint scanner, tablet has racial recognition). Browser compatibility should include Chrome and Firefox, and it needs to have some sort of export functionality for backups.Target price point is <75/year for 4 devices
