TL;DR
A password manager export is the file of saved credentials generated from a password vault or browser — usually unencrypted CSV — used to migrate logins to a new manager or computer during a data transfer service. Because the file holds every password in plain text, careful technicians create it only with the client present, import it immediately, and securely delete it along with any copies in downloads or trash.
What it means
A password manager export is the file of saved credentials generated from a password vault or browser — usually unencrypted CSV — used to migrate logins to a new manager or computer during a data transfer service. Because the file holds every password in plain text, careful technicians create it only with the client present, import it immediately, and securely delete it along with any copies in downloads or trash. Asking how that deletion is handled is a reasonable security question for any shop.
