PasswordOwl

Password Owl - Secure password manager with autofill. Zero-knowledge encryption for your logins and cards.

PasswordOwl - Zero-Knowledge Password Manager Secure your digital life with PasswordOwl, the password manager that never sees your passwords. Built with zero-knowledge architecture, your credentials are encrypted on your device before they ever leave it. Not even we can access your data. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHY PASSWORDOWL? In a world of constant data breaches, traditional password managers store your vault on their servers with keys they control. If they get hacked, your passwords are at risk. PasswordOwl is different. We use a zero-knowledge security model where: • Your master password never leaves your device • Encryption happens entirely in your browser • Our servers only store encrypted blobs they cannot decrypt • Even if our servers were compromised, attackers would get nothing useful ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEY FEATURES ★ Smart Autofill Automatically detects login forms on any website and offers to fill your saved credentials with a single click. No more copying and pasting passwords. ★ Save New Logins When you sign in to a new website, PasswordOwl prompts you to save the credentials to your vault. Building your password collection is effortless. ★ Powerful Password Generator Create strong, unique passwords instantly. Customize length, include uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters. Generate passwords that are virtually impossible to crack. ★ Quick Search Find any login instantly with our fast search. Type a few characters of the website name and access your credentials in seconds. ★ Auto-Lock Protection Your vault automatically locks after a period of inactivity. Even if you step away from your computer, your passwords remain protected. ★ Cross-Device Sync Access your passwords on any device through the PasswordOwl web app. Your encrypted vault syncs securely across all your devices. ★ Secure Notes Store sensitive information beyond passwords: credit cards, secure notes and more. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECURITY ARCHITECTURE PasswordOwl employs military-grade security standards: ▸ AES-256-GCM Encryption The same encryption standard used by governments and financial institutions worldwide. Each piece of data is encrypted with a unique initialization vector. ▸ Argon2id Key Derivation Winner of the Password Hashing Competition. We use aggressive parameters (64MB memory, 3 iterations) to make brute-force attacks computationally infeasible. ▸ Two-Secret Key Derivation (2SKD) Your vault is protected by two secrets: your master password (memorized) and a unique Secret Key (stored on your devices). Both are required to decrypt your vault. This means: - If someone guesses your password, they still need your Secret Key - If our servers are breached, attackers cannot derive your keys - If someone steals your device, they still need your password ▸ OPAQUE Protocol We use the OPAQUE protocol for authentication, a cutting-edge cryptographic protocol where your password is never transmitted to our servers, not even in hashed form. The server authenticates you without ever learning your password. ▸ Local-Only Decryption All encryption and decryption operations happen exclusively in your browser using the Web Crypto API. Your master password and vault key exist only in memory and are never persisted to disk. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ HOW IT WORKS 1. Create your account on passwordowl.com 2.
