Should you store passwords in "navicat"?

Question

PHP

Is it worth storing passwords from the server in this program?
For example, the developer of TotalCommander himself says that storing passwords in his program is undesirable.
But in the end, entering passwords every time is also not a favorite thing for many.
Something I ask a lot today...

Answer 1

I use HeidiSQL, but I also used navicat and I don't see a problem. No need to be paranoid, just keep everything, and who needs it, he will bypass and steal anything. VK servers, facebook and others are hacked :)

Answer 2

It is worth using MySQL over SSH (authorization via key). And cover the extra port from the outside and improve security.

Answer 3

How long can you listen to this nonsense, about "whoever needs it will break it anyway, so don't worry"?
It's not even that if you set it up normally, it won't break.
And the fact that viruses do not specifically need you, but they need a large number of "loshkas" for their botnets. Whether to be among them, decide for yourself.

Answer 4

All my passwords are stored in the keepassx encrypted database (cross-platform, available for all modern operating systems and mobile platforms), the database is in the cloud and is synchronized with client PCs with my account
