KeePassXC

KeePassXC is a free and open-source password manager. It is a community fork of KeePassX, itself a cross-platform port of the Windows-based KeePass Password Safe. KeePassXC stores passwords securely in an encrypted database, which can be unlocked with a master password or key file.

Features:

• Secure Password Storage: KeePassXC uses strong encryption algorithms (AES, Twofish, ChaCha20) to protect password databases.
• Cross-Platform Compatibility: KeePassXC is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and other Unix-like operating systems.
• Password Generation: KeePassXC can generate strong, random passwords for users.
• Auto-Type: The auto-type feature allows users to automatically fill in login credentials on websites and applications.
• Browser Integration: KeePassXC integrates with popular web browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, and Safari through a browser extension. This allows for direct filling of usernames and passwords on websites and creation of new entries from within the browser.
• Key Files and Hardware Keys: KeePassXC supports the use of key files and hardware keys (such as YubiKey) as additional security factors for database access.
• Command-Line Interface: A command-line interface allows for scripting and automation of password management tasks.
• Password History: KeePassXC stores a history of password changes, allowing users to revert to previous passwords if necessary.
• Password Strength Meter: Built-in tool to evaluate the strength of passwords.
• Offline Access: The database is stored locally, allowing access to passwords even without an internet connection.
• Customizable Fields: KeePassXC allows users to add custom fields to password entries to store additional information.
• Database Import/Export: KeePassXC supports importing and exporting databases in various formats, including KeePass 1.x, KeePassX, and CSV.
• Attachment Support: The ability to store attachments securely within the password database.
• TOTP Support: Support for Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) generation for two-factor authentication.

Security Considerations:

The security of KeePassXC relies on the strength of the master password and/or key file used to protect the database. Users should choose strong, unique master passwords and keep key files secure. It is also important to keep KeePassXC software updated to benefit from the latest security patches. The integrity of the host operating system is also a factor in overall security.
