  • An Architecture for Cryptography with Smart Cards and NFC Rings on Android
    OpenKeychain: An Architecture for Cryptography with Smart Cards and NFC Rings on Android DOMINIK SCHÜRMANN, TU Braunschweig, Germany SERGEJ DECHAND, University of Bonn, Germany LARS WOLF, TU Braunschweig, Germany While many Android apps provide end-to-end encryption, the cryptographic keys are still stored on the device itself and can thus be stolen by exploiting vulnerabilities. External cryptographic hardware solves this issue, but is currently only used for two-factor authentication and not for communication encryption. In this paper, we design, implement, and evaluate an architecture for NFC-based cryptography on Android. Our high-level API provides cryptographic operations without requiring knowledge of public-key cryptography. By developing OpenKeychain, we were able to roll out this architecture for more than 100,000 users. It provides encryption for emails, messaging, and a password manager. We provide a threat model, NFC performance measurements, and discuss their impact on our architecture design. As an alternative form factor to smart cards, we created the prototype of an NFC signet ring. To evaluate the UI components and form factors, a lab study with 40 participants at a large company has been conducted. We measured the time required by the participants to set up the system and reply to encrypted emails. These measurements and a subsequent interview indicate that our NFC-based solutions are more user friendly in comparison to traditional password-protected keys. CCS Concepts: • Security and privacy → Usability in security and privacy; Key management; Hardware-based security protocols; • Human-centered computing → Mobile devices; Additional Key Words and Phrases: NFC, near-field communication, smart card, ring ACM Reference Format: Dominik Schürmann, Sergej Dechand, and Lars Wolf.

  • Keepass Password Safe Help
    KeePass Password Safe KeePass: Copyright © 2003-2011 Dominik Reichl. The program is OSI Certified Open Source Software. OSI Certified is a certification mark of the Open Source Initiative. For more information see the License page. Introduction Today you need to remember many passwords. You need a password for the Windows network logon, your e-mail account, your website's FTP password, online passwords (like website member account), etc. etc. etc. The list is endless. Also, you should use different passwords for each account. Because if you use only one password everywhere and someone gets this password you have a problem... A serious problem. He would have access to your e-mail account, website, etc. Unimaginable. But who can remember all those passwords? Nobody, but KeePass can. KeePass is a free, open source, light-weight and easy-to-use password manager for Windows. The program stores your passwords in a highly encrypted database. This database consists of only one file, so it can be easily transferred from one computer to another. KeePass supports password groups, you can sort your passwords (for example into Windows, Internet, My Website, etc.). You can drag&drop passwords into other windows. The powerful auto-type feature will type user names and passwords for you into other windows. The program can export the database to various formats. It can also import data from various other formats (more than 20 different formats of other password managers, a generic CSV importer, ...). Of course, you can also print the password list or current view. Using the context menu of the password list you can quickly copy password or user name to the Windows clipboard.

  • Keepass Instructions
    Introduction to KeePass What is KeePass? KeePass is a safe place for all your usernames, passwords, software licenses, confirmations from vendors and even credit card information. Why Use a Password Safe? • It makes and remembers excellent passwords for every site you visit. These passwords will be random and long. • It is very dangerous to either try and remember your passwords or re-use the same password on multiple sites. Using KeePass eliminates these problems. • It helps you log into websites • It stores license codes and other critical information from software vendors • It protects all your licenses and passwords with state of the art encryption making it unbreakable as long as you have a good passphrase. I made a 5 minute introductory video screencast . Go ahead and watch it. http://www.screencast.com/t/RgJjbdYF0p Copyright(c) 2011 by Steven Shank Why switch from my OCS Passwords safe to Keepass? Keepass is much better than my program. It is much more secure. My OCS Passwords is not using state of the art encryption. My program is crackable. In addition to being safer, it is even easier to use than my program and has some great extra features. In short, while OCS passwords was a good program in its time, its time has passed. Among the many advanced features, KeePass lets you add fields, copy username and passwords into websites and programs more easily, group your passwords and launch websites directly from KeePass. How Do You Switch from OCS Password to KeePass? What I've done • I worked with a programmer to write a program to convert current password databases into a text file I could import into KeePass.

  • Online Security and Privacy
    Security & Privacy Guide Security and Privacy Guide When thinking about security and privacy settings you should consider: What do you want to protect? Who do you want to protect it from? Do you need to protect it? How bad are the consequences if you fail to protect it? How much trouble are you prepared to go to? These questions should be asked whilst considering what information you are accessing (which websites), how you are accessing the information, (what device you are using) and where you are accessing the information (at home, work, public place). Security & Privacy When looking at your Digital Security you are protecting your information against malicious attacks and malware. (Malware is software intentionally designed to cause damage to a computer). Digital Privacy is different as you are deciding what information you are prepared to share with a website or App (or its third party partners) that you are already using. Permission to share this information can be implicit once you start using a website or App. Some websites or Apps will allow you to control how they use your information. Security Physical access: How secure is the device you are using? Is it kept in a locked building, at home, or do you use it when you are out and about? Does anyone else have access to the device? Do you require a passcode or password to unlock your device? Virtual access: Have you updated your IOS software (on an iPad) or installed the latest anti-virus software on your device? Most devices will prompt you when an update is available.

  • Technical Guides
    Technical Guides KeePass Password Manager Tutorial Wireguard Ubuntu Deployment SQM for 1 Gbps Lines With OpenWrt KeePass Password Manager Tutorial Introduction I don't trust online password managers because they are closed source and companies have been hacked in the past. If you look up "lastpass breached" in Google you can see my point. Keepass is open source and offline. Why put your trust in a company when you can create and access the database yourself? An honorable mention is bitwarden. They are also open-source and you have the option of hosting your own bitwarden server at home as an option. If you want to pay and are willing to trust a company and have your passwords encrypted on their cloud they would be your best bet. Downloading Keepass https://keepass.info/download.html Get the Installer for Windows (2.45) aka KeePass-2.45-Setup.exe. After you get it install Keepass. Recommended plugins (.plgx) to download: Keepass has a variety of useful plugins listed here: https://keepass.info/plugins.html I recommend the following below for now. Plugins always have a .plgx file extension.
