Store sign-in info with ActiveArmor

Learn how to use the AT&T ActiveArmor Password Manager and Browser Extension to securely store sign-in info.


Password Manager

You have to set up a Master Password in the AT&T ActiveArmor® app to use Password Manager, Identity Monitoring, and Social Media Identity Protection. The Master Password protects your personal info and passwords stored in your vault. We recommend linking your Master Password to your phone’s biometric unlock during the set-up process.
