Google Chrome's built-in password manager acts as a secure digital vault to store and manage your various account credentials. When you log in to a website, Chrome offers to save the username and password for that site. If you choose to save it, the browser encrypts the information and stores it on your device locally, protecting your data from unauthorized access.

When you revisit the site, Chrome can automatically populate the saved credentials, making the login process quick and convenient. The password manager also allows you to view, edit, or delete saved passwords in the browser settings.

Google takes security seriously and uses encryption mechanisms to safeguard your data. Additionally, Chrome prompts you to set a primary device password or use biometric authentication to access saved passwords, adding an extra layer of protection.
