Password Diary: Internet Password Book
Keep usernames and passwords organised in one offline book, so you can use stronger passwords without forgetting them.
Remembering passwords is a hassle. To cope some people keep the same password for all things. This is dangerous as it can make it easy for hackers. Some people try to keep them saved to their computers, but this becomes a pain when your computer crashes or when your mobile is lost or broken. It is also possible that hackers can steal passwords from servers, such as what happened with Yahoo in the past.
As our world becomes more technologically advanced, and more apps and websites exist, we have had to make more and more accounts and passwords. It can be difficult to keep track of everything and make strong and unique passwords. That's where this Password Diary comes in.

Why choose this journal?
Easy To Use
With all your passwords organized into one place. It's easy to access any password very quickly.
Analog/Manual Security
Having your passwords stored in a physical diary makes sure that your access is not device/Wi-Fi dependent. It also makes it hard to steal, and if it does get stolen, you'll know your data has been leaked! (whereas you might not know if your password has been stolen digitally)
Sectioned and Disguisable
The diary is sectioned into different types of accounts for you to easily be able to locate the account you are looking for. No more bustling around.
Blank Space
The last pages are kept blank to provide space for important contact numbers, especially lost bank cards, insurance companies, breakdown assistance, immediate family and close friends in case of emergency.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Password Diary?
The Password Diary is a simple, offline logbook designed to help you organize all your usernames and passwords in one place. Published by Newbee Publication in October 2020, it offers a secure, physical solution for password management that removes reliance on digital storage.
What types of account sections does it include?
Each diary is divided into sections for different account types—such as emails, social media, banking, utilities, and more—so you can quickly find and update the login information you need. There are alphabetical or category-based tabs to keep everything organized at a glance.
How should I record my entries to keep them secure?
To prevent someone from easily understanding your diary if it’s accessed, avoid writing routine information (like your full name or obvious hints) in plain text. Instead, use a personal code or shorthand system that only you understand.
Can I track when I change my passwords?
Yes. Both versions include a Password Update Tracker—a dedicated space next to each entry where you can note the date of each password change. It’s recommended you update your passwords every 3–6 months to stay ahead of potential security threats.
What's the purpose of the blank pages at the end?
The last pages are left blank so you can jot down vital contact numbers—lost bank cards, insurance companies, breakdown assistance, immediate family, close friends, or any other emergency contacts. Keeping these in the same diary means everything you need in a crunch is in one place.
What are the physical specs of the diary?
Print length: 216 pages
Dimensions: 5.25 × 0.49 × 8 inches
Format: Paperback, weighing about 11 ounces
What cover designs are available?
The diary comes in both green and blue covers, so you can choose the color that best fits your style or color-code multiple diaries if you keep one for personal use and another for work.
How do I choose a shorthand or code that I’ll remember but others won’t?
Pick a system meaningful only to you—like the name of your childhood pet plus a number code, or emojis that hint at the site. Write a “legend” in your personal notes (not in the diary!) so you don’t forget it, but keep the diary itself inscrutable to outsiders.
Is there an index or “table of contents” in the diary?
Yes—at the front you’ll find blank “Index” pages. After you fill in a new account section, note its page number there for quick lookup.
Can I store 2-FA or security questions in the diary?
You can—but treat them like passwords. Use your shorthand system and update them whenever you change your security answers. There are extra blank lines under each entry for just this purpose.
What if I lose the diary—how do I mitigate the risk?
Store it in a locked drawer or safe.
Keep a secondary backup (e.g., encrypted digital file) in a different secure location.
Change the most sensitive passwords immediately.
How durable is the diary—will it withstand daily use?
It’s paperback with a reinforced spine and high-quality acid-free paper. You can tuck it into a bag or drawer without worrying about pages falling out.
How should I dispose of the diary when it’s full or out-of-date?
Shred it completely—either by an at-home shredder or professional service. Do not toss it intact in the trash, as it contains sensitive information.
Can I use this diary for more than one person or purpose?
Yes! You can dedicate one color (green or blue) for personal use and the other for work, or share a diary with a partner—just be sure to distinguish entries with your shorthand.
Are there tips for remembering to update passwords?
Set calendar reminders every 3 months (or use our built-in Password Update Tracker).
Pair password changes with routine events (e.g., your quarterly budget review).
Use the blank notes section at the back to jot down upcoming “change by” dates.
