The Benefits You Get When Using Passwarden

Highly reliable data encryption

Passwarden employs both the advanced EC p-384 protocol for public-key cryptography and the military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. This means that even if a perpetrator manages to intercept or steal your sensitive data, they won’t be able to decode and read it.

Duress mode

Go to the Settings, set a special Duress Password, and select the data that won’t stay hidden when the Passwarden application gets a signal that you reveal your information, not of your own free will. Now, when under duress, use this Duress Password and not the Master one so that your most important data remains undisclosed.

Safe password sharing

Information you send using messengers and emails can all too easily be intercepted and read by unauthorized third parties. Use Passwarden to safely share your important information: just create a Shared Vault and invite a new member to it.

Strong password generator

Truly strong secret combinations must feature random sequences of digits, symbols, and both upper- and lower-case letters. Creating them is both boring and difficult: this is exactly the task that Passwarden is ideal for. Just set the required length of the passwords, and our application will generate and save them to the protected data storage. Forget about trying to memorize these almost impossible to remember combinations: use the Autofill feature, and they will be filled out automatically.

Two-factor authentication

Two-factor authentication is a well-proven method for reducing the incidence of online fraud. Even if the perpetrator gets hold of the user’s password, they will still fail to sign in to the user’s account. We employ this way of authentication to ensure that you get the utmost care of your security and privacy.

Cross-device synchronization

This Passwarden feature makes sure that when you use one of your devices to add new data to your secure Vault or modify the already existing entries, all your other devices immediately see these changes.

Storage for various types of data

Using Passwarden you can store, modify and share data in three categories:

  • Account credentials (passwords, email accounts, software licenses, logins)
  • Personal information (driver’s license, passport, ID card, SSN, contacts)
  • Payment details (bank accounts, debit and credit cards)

Think you want more options? Then store any confidential text information using the Security notes feature.
