Simple to Use Password Manager and Generator

As I told in a previous post, no one can remember all those different passwords, especially if they are complicated. A best solution to this is to use a secure password manager to store and manage all your personal data. Passport is one such free password manager and generator, which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way.

This application lets you put all your passwords in an encrypted database, which can be locked with a master password. Therefore, you only have to remember one single master password to open the whole database.


Moreover, a built-in password generator helps you to create 100% secure passwords, and drag-and-drop capability provides easy to use web-form filling functionality.

Note: Please remember that Passport is currently in beta, so there might be some issues. The application is clean (tested with VirusTotal) however verify it with your own antivirus program.

Passport can be downloaded free at the following link.
