Encrypted Lockbox for passwords

Been using Password Safe for a while ... It's a very nice little app.

I don't suppose using a yellow sticky on the monitor counts ?

In any case I find that KeyPass (also at sourceforge) has met my needs for quite a while

 

It depends...if you can encrypt it: why not?

 

I have found the fold/2 and rot180 method stops the casual observer but not the determined cracker

 

adding some random numbers to your code makes it a lot more difficult if that's what you mean?

sounds familiar

 

well not quite, I just suggesting to fold it in half and turn it upside down.... after all if its written down there is no point pretending that it is secured

 

Ohh my god

 

Actually little encryption apps on handheld devices (or on a usb mem stick) do work well for the passwords you want to carry around with you

The handhelds (like the old Psion 5) were rarely networked so your passwords were nicely isolated away from the computer and easily accessible

I don't think there is a really good solution (yet) other than commiting things to memory and having some mnemonic tags to remember it with

 

I have one encrypted cdrom with all my passwords and purchased software..

I had to do it twice cause the first time I forgot the code (happened quite a few times with those Fully Encryption Disk Programs...) I won't use those anymore...

the passwords I login to @ Wilders, SB, .. are all written down cryptic so to speak But if you know me, it's breakeable, just like you said.
