Passpack

Looks to be a real (and really secure) solution to globally accessible account and password information. I’m only slightly hesitant, as any internet professional should be, but as I continue to use Passpack I am more and more impressed. In fact, I was going to begin building a similar service but after finding them, I see no reason to compete.

The features I currently find most important:

  • Client side key decryption so even the host can’t discover or compromise passwords
  • Hosted using SSL
  • Hidden (masked) password fields so no one can see them over your shoulder
  • Copy directly to your clipboard so it’s never necessary to make your password visible
  • A client side application for (perhaps temporary) offline storage & backup
Other password management solutions:

  • Clipperz
  • Agatra
  • Passlet
  • Axantum Software AB - Xecrets
  • esoftpro - Online Password Manager
    A PHP based script package for use on your own web host
  • w3pw
    Another PHP based project that utilizes your hosting infrastructure
