  • 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.

  • Ovum Market Radar: Password Management Tools
    Ovum Market Radar: Password Management Tools Improving cybersecurity by eliminating weak, reused, and compromised passwords Publication Date: 17 Aug 2019 | Product code: INT005-000010KEEPER Richard Edwards Ovum Market Radar: Password Management Tools Summary Catalyst Cybersecurity often depends on the choices made by individuals. Most of these individuals are conscientious when it comes to preserving the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of corporate systems and customer data. However, if we consider the ways in which passwords and account credentials are used and managed, we can easily see weaknesses in our cybersecurity defenses. Password management tools have entered the mainstream, with more than 70 apps competing for user attention in the Google Play Store alone. There’s also a good selection of products targeting teams, businesses, and enterprises. However, these products need to adapt and evolve to win new business, protect against new cybersecurity threats, and support the move toward a “password-less” enterprise. Ovum view Key findings from an Ovum survey of IT decision-makers and enterprise employees reveals that password management practices are out of date, overly reliant on manual processes, and highly dependent on employees “doing the right thing”. If the alarm bell isn’t ringing, it should be. Cybersecurity training and awareness programs are useful, but to keep the business safe and secure, employees across all roles and at all levels require tools and applications to help alleviate the burden and risks associated with workplace passwords, credentials, logins, and access codes. Key messages ▪ Passwords are for more than just the web. Credentials and passcodes are required for desktop applications, mobile apps, IT infrastructure, physical access, and more.

  • Password Managers
    Password Managers A Higher Education Information Security Council (HEISC) Resource JULY 2019 Password Managers What Is a Password Manager Tool? A password manager tool is software that helps users encrypt, store, and manage passwords. The tool also helps users create secure passwords and automatically log in to websites. Who Might Use a Password Manager Tool, and Why? Users should employ unique passwords for each website or system to help minimize the impact from the breach of one website or system; however, most users cannot remember a separate password for many sites and tend to reuse passwords or write them on a sticky note attached to their computer. Additionally, organizations may have passwords that need to be shared across teams and want a secure method to do so. Password manager tools allow users and teams to more securely manage many distinct passwords and automatically log them in to websites. The Benefits of Using a Password Manager Tool Password manager tools enable users to create and securely store unique passwords for websites, applications, and other systems without having to memorize or write them down. Risks to Consider When Using a Password Manager Tool Special care should be taken to secure the password tool, as it will grant access to all passwords. The “master” password that grants access to the tool should be very strong and unique, and multifactor authentication should be used if possible. Almost all modern commercial password managers allow users to implement some form of multifactor authentication. You will also need to decide whether you want your password management tool to store passwords locally or in the cloud.

  • Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery Unlocks 1Password, Keepass, Lastpass and Dashlane Vaults
    Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery Unlocks 1Password, KeePass, LastPass and Dashlane Vaults Moscow, Russia – August 10, 2017 - ElcomSoft Co. Ltd. updates Distributed Password Recovery, enabling the recovery of master keys protecting encrypted vaults of four popular password managers: 1Password, KeePass, LastPass and Dashlane. By attacking a single master password, experts can gain access to the entire database containing all of the user’s saved passwords, authentication credentials and other highly sensitive information. Password managers’ protected vaults may contain images of user’s documents, various identity- related information, payment and loyalty card numbers. “We’re continuing our quest on expanding the types of passwords we can break”, says Vladimir Katalov, ElcomSoft CEO. “This time we are targeting four of the most popular password managers, allowing experts gaining access to protected vaults containing users’ authentication credentials, stored logins, passwords and forms to numerous resources. With today’s password managers this only requires breaking a single master password.” One Password to Rule Them All The idea behind all password management apps is simple: allowing users to securely store, organize and use passwords required to authenticate into various resources. As the user no longer has to remember the many different passwords, the use of password managers effectively cuts password re-use and stimulates the use of strong, unique passwords to protect different resources. Password managers can even automatically generate strong, random passwords that are unique per Web site or resource, rendering both dictionary and brute-force attacks ineffective. These passwords are stored in encrypted vaults, and can be only decrypted once the user enters their master password.
