Before downloading please observe the following:

  • This application is only for personal (non-profit) use! Companies must pay for their software. So if you like it and use it, do not bring it with you to work. Have your company contact me and we will find a reasonable solution.
  • You must have .NET 2.0 installed in order to run the application. Get .NET 2.0 from Microsoft's download pages if you do not already have it.

The current version of PasswordPrivacy is v1.1.0.5. For the time being it is not possible to download previous versions of this application.

A sneak preview of the next major version is now available. Be aware that, although it is tested (and I use it myself), there are still known and unknown bugs.

About Password Privacy

Password Privacy is a .NET 2.0 application that stores your passwords and related information in an encrypted file on your harddisk. This file has the extension .pp, which stands for PasswordPrivacy.

Below you can find a screenshot of the main window. On the left a list of Providers is seen. Providers simply act as a natural way of organising Accounts. An Account in this context is excactly what it sounds like: Some kind of resource protected by a password or pin code.

Examples of Accounts are plentiful: Web site logins, computer logins, pin codes for credit cards, and so on. You probably have a million of these, and you most likely reuse the same password over and over again for different purposes. This is necessary because it is hard for most people to remember 30+ passwords. This is especially true if they are not all used every day.

Features

  • Your passwords need never again be saved to your harddisk in plain text.
  • You need only remember one password (for opening the .pp file containing the rest of your passwords).
  • You can use this application to access passwords even though people are looking over your shoulder, through a copy-paste operation.
  • For encryption PasswordPrivacy uses the 192bit TripleDES algoritm.
  • You can verify correctness of your passwords when creating new accounts (option) and through a plain text XML view.
  • To ensure authenticity, you will be asked for the password also when you save (option), so nobody but yourself can generate your .pp file.

If the privacy of your passwords is a concern of yours, I suggest you take a look on the downloads.
