If you really care about your security, you most likely use unique passwords to log in to hundreds of websites and apps. Apple makes it easy for you to store and use passwords with iCloud Keychain. Thanks to it, Apple devices (iPhone, Mac, etc.) remember passwords for you and automatically insert them into websites and applications. Just verify your identity with Face ID or Touch ID.
This makes it easy to use strong passwords and change them regularly because you don't have to remember them. However, if you never change your passwords, you open yourself up to a criminal who will use your password to buy a few products on Amazon, for example. Or simply empty your bank accounts.
