AceBIT Password Depot

The software provides security for your passwords – in three respects: It safely stores your passwords, guarantees secure data usage and helps you to create secure passwords. However, Password Depot does not only guarantee security: It also stands for convenient usability, a high degree of customizability, marked flexibility in terms of interaction with other devices and, last but not least, extreme functional versatility. Safe Password Storage

• Best possible encryption. In Password Depot, your information is encrypted not merely once, but in fact twice, thanks to the algorithm AES or Rijndael 256. In the US, this algorithm is approved for state documents of highest security clearance!
• Double protection. You can secure your passwords files twice. To start with, you select a master password that has to be entered whenever one opens the file. Additionally, you can choose to protect your data by means of a key file that must be uploaded to open the file.
• Protection against brute-force attacks. Every time the master password is entered incorrectly, the program is locked for three seconds. This renders attacks that rely on the sheer testing of possible passwords – so called “brute-force attacks” – virtually impossible.
• Backup copies. Password Depot generates backup copies of your passwords files. The backups may be stored optionally on FTP servers on the Internet (also via SFTP) or on external hard drives. You can define the time interval between the backup copies’ creation individually.

Secure Data Usage

• Protection from keylogging. All password fields within the program are internally protected against different types of interception of keystrokes (Key Logging). This prevents your sensible data entries from being spied on.
• Traceless Memory. Whilst dealing with your passwords, Password Depot does not leave any traces in your PC's working memory. Therefore, even a hacker sitting directly at your computer and searching through its memory dumps cannot find any passwords.
• Clipboard protection. Password Depot protects your clipboard data in multiple ways: it automatically detects any active clipboard viewers and masks its changes within the clipboard; furthermore, after performing auto-complete, all sensitive data is automatically and immediately cleared from the clipboard.
• Virtual keyboard. The ultimate protection against keylogging. With this tool, you can enter your master password or other confidential information without even touching the physical keyboard. Password Depot does not simulate keystrokes, but instead uses an internal cache, so that input cannot be intercepted, neither software- nor hardware-based.

Verified Passwords

• Verified password quality. Let Password Depot check your passwords' quality and security! Intelligent algorithms will examine your passwords and warn you against ‘weak’ passwords, which you can subsequently replace with the help of the Password Generator.
• Password policies. You can define basic security requirements that must be met by all passwords which are added or modified. For instance, you can specify the passwords’ minimum length and the range of characters contained therein.
• Security warnings. Password Depot contains a list of warnings which always keep an eye on your passwords’ security. For instance, the program warns you in case you use the unsafe FTP protocol and in this case advices you to use SFTP instead.
• Protection against dictionary attacks. An important warning featured in Password Depot is the notification in case you are using unsafe passwords. These are passwords which are frequently used, therefore appear in hackers’ dictionaries and are easily crackable.

Versatile Functions

• Cards, identities, licenses. Password Depot protects and manages not only your passwords, but also your information from credit cards, EC cards, software licenses and identities. Each information type offers a separate template, with e.g. the credit card window featuring a PIN field.
• File attachments. You may add file attachments containing e.g. additional information to your password entries. These attachments can be opened directly from within Password Depot and may additionally be saved on data storage media.
• Transfer passwords. You can import both password entries from other password managers into Password Depot as well as export entries from Password Depot. To do so, the software offers you special wizards that facilitate importing and exporting password information.
• Synchronize password files. Password Depot supports you in synchronizing two different password files. This is relevant e.g. if you are using a single password file on two different PCs. This being said, the file synchronization works in both directions.
