Password Manager | Passlet.com
by Nathan on Oct.16, 2007, under Uncategorized
I have been toying with the idea of an internet based password manager. I started by making a C program but I never really finished it. Then I thought php would be the way to go, and never started it. So today I ran across passlet.com. It is a online password manager, that stores everything encrypted. The nice thing about this is that the browser actually does the encryption and then that data is sent over ssl to be stored in the server. This way everything is stored encrypted.
One thing I like about passlet over other systems is how simple it it. There is no crazy css going on, just simple ajax encryption and decryption. Also passlet isn’t afraid to show the queries between me and the server. I can see everything going on. I did some research on the site and it seems like it has been around for a year or so. I would feel more comfortable if I controlled the server and database but really its probably more safe than some e-commerce sites out there. I will be giving passlet a shot and will let you know how I feel.
