KeePassX
KeePassX is a multi-platform port of KeePass, an open source
and cross-platform password manager. This utility helps you
to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your
passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a
key-disk. This lets users only need to remember one single
master password or insert the key-disk to unlock the whole
database.
The databases are encrypted using the algorithms AES (alias
Rijndael) or Twofish using a 256 bit key.
KeePassX currently uses same the database file format as the
KeePass 1.x (Classic) password manager software for Windows.
Features include:
- Extensive management- title for each entry for better
identification:
- Determine different expiration dates
- Insertion of attachments
- User-defined symbols for groups and entries
- Fast entry duplication
- Sorting entries in groups
- Search function: in specific groups or in the complete
database
- Auto-Type, a feature that allows you to e.g. log in to
a web page by pressing a single key combination. KeePassX does the rest
of
the typing for you. Auto-Type reads the title of currently active
window on your screen and matches it to the configured database entries
- Database security with access to the KeePassX database
being granted either with a password, a
key-file (e.g. a CD or a memory-stick) or both
- Automatic generation of secure passwords
- Precaution features, quality indicator for chosen
passwords hiding all passwords behind asterisks
- Encryption- either the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)
or the Twofish algorithm are used, with encryption of the database in
256 bit sized increments
- Import and export of entries. Import from PwManager (*.pwm)
and KWallet (*.xml) files, Export as
textfile (*.txt)
