Askrypt
Password manager without master password
Status
⚠️Askrypt is under active development and has not undergone extensive security testing. Use at your own risk.⚠️
Overview
Askrypt is a secure password/secret manager that does not require a master password. Secrets are encrypted by a key derived from user-specific data using PBKDF2 with HMAC-SHA256. The user-specific data is a set of answers to personal questions known only to the user.
Performance
PBKDF2 is intentionally slow to prevent brute-force and dictionary attacks. The iteration count can be adjusted to balance security and performance. Default iteration count in Askrypt is set to 600,000.
Benchmarks on a typical system:
- 100,000 iterations: ~100ms
- 600,000 iterations: ~600ms
- 1,000,000 iterations: ~1000ms
