Cyberkriminelle haben über Monate hinweg manipulierte Versionen des beliebten Open-Source „KeePass Passwort Manager“ verbreitet, um Schadsoftware in Unternehmensnetzwerke einzuschleusen. Diese modifizierten Versionen sehen aus und funktionieren wie das Original, enthalten jedoch bösartigen Code, der es Angreifern ermöglicht, sensible Daten zu stehlen und Ransomware-Angriffe durchzuführen

People on Mastodon are usually very aware of online security, but here's a post I just wrote that explains why strong passwords are mandatory to protect you data online, presents one technique used by hackers to guess a password, and offers suggestions to protect your online credentials.

The goal of this post is simply to bring awareness and push people to start using good password managers!

Passbolt 5.1 brings support for encrypted resource metadata. This further extends passbolt’s security model to improve confidentiality for the contextual information surrounding credentials.

But what does that mean for your organization?

In this detailed blog post, passbolt's CTO, Remy Bertot breaks it down: https://hubs.ly/Q03nt_P50

Okay, I'm certain most password managers do this, but I just had to change our Hulu password and was able to share the new password with my family members via a secure link from @1password that will expire in the amount of time that I choose. This is a great feature that I hope all password managers provide.

Oh, and, just use a password manager.

Am I missing something, or is #Apple #Passwords really not able to show me _which_ other entries reuse the same password?

Kennt sich jemand eingehender mit der technischen Umsetzung von Passwortmanagern aus. Mich interessiert die über ein HSM-gesicherte Ablage von Keys, Nichtexportierbarkeit von bestimmten Keys und Verwendung als Middleware für S/MIME, Signatur- und Authentifizierungszertifikaten. Ich habe bisher nicht viel darüber gefunden und würde gerne wissen ob es technische Gründe dafür gibt oder eher an dem mangelnden Bedarf liegt. #smime #passwordmanager #hsm

If you are an Apple user looking for a free, open-source, and privacy-focused password manager, KeePassium is a fantastic option.

KeePassium offers synchronization options, but allows you to keep your password database offline by default.

It's also KeePass-compatible, which makes migrating from or to any other KeePass-compatible apps easy.
