KeePass is a portable password manager for PC (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X), with ports available for Android, iPhone, iPad, and more.
Let’s face it, most of us use the same password over and over to avoid
password management but this practice is highly risky. It means if
someone gains or cracks your password, they could log into any of your
accounts, stealing data and jeopardizing your security. Having a
separate, lengthy, and random password for every site is considered the
best way to secure data. KeePass keeps every username and password pair
in an encrypted database, protected by a single master password or key
(the only one you have to remember). And it doesn’t store your database
in the cloud unless you upload it there.
KeePass at a Glance
You can easily download KeePass for Windows and you can port it on a USB
stick for most other operating systems. The interface is as busy as it
is robust. For example, KeePass supports password groups for sorting
passwords. You can drag and drop passwords into most windows or use a
hot key to type your login information into windows automatically. You
can also quick copy user names and passwords to the clipboard with a
double-click on a field in the password list. And KeePass can import
data from a variety of formats like CSV, while the password list can be
exported to formats such as TXT, HTML, XML, and CSV.
