What is technology doing to us? However now it's time someone comes up with solutions. One recent development has been researchers developing a new technology that will allow gadgets to identify their owners just with a touch by measuring their heartbeats through their fingertips, as reported on the website TechNewsDaily. Your heartbeat can soon be your password to log into your smartphone, tablet, gaming consoles and other devices.

One of the lesser known tech companies too has indeed taken the novel initiative of actually creating a storage vault for passwords. Aiding to minimize the pain with all the passwords, is a storage device or vault, MyLOK+. Rather than storing them on a sticky note or somewhere in 'The Cloud', the device enables you to create complex, hacker-proof passwords using its Random Password Generator and encrypts your credentials safely and securely on MyLOK+'s impenetrable smart chip.

More such innovations are the need of the hour, and hopefully a day would come when we can safely forget our passwords and will not need a dying declaration for passwords.
