<div class="moz-cite-prefix"> I have been using Keepass for a decade
now. Then because I started using Mac OSX and Windows at work,
went with KeepassX which works on all platforms. I started
using Strongbox on my iPhone because it reads Keepass databases.
My database is stored on Dropbox with a unique name that wont make
sense to anyone who gets access to my Dropbox and besides the DB
is encrypted with both a password and a keyfile (a small file
somwhere also on Dropbox with a odd name deep down in some
sub-dirs. The reason I went with Strongbox is that it has a
offline access mode in read only so on my phone with no net access
I still have my passwords, like when on vacation in Europe.
Strongbox does not work on Windows however, so I keep using
Keepass on Windows at work. Keepass, KeepassX and Strongbox all
use the same database.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"> Stongbox on a mac is also integrated
with the web browsers so you just type in the strong box password
and it inserts your user/pass combo in the browser, really handy
to not have passwords stored in the browser, on Windows Keepass
does not integrate so its one extra step but I feel very secure.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"> I like having a password and a keyfile
for security, to open the encrypted DB the app needs both password
and the keyfile to open, in my case the keyfile is a word doc
file for a recipe card, so no one would figure it out that it is
important (well there is probably a way, but bigger fish out
there).<br>

My question about remembering the 400 passwords was actually
rhetorical. I too<br>
have a password program that encrypts the db. I only need to
remember it's password. <br>
<br>
The down side of this, is that I can't truely go moble (unless I
use a
laptop with the program and db installed) and do things like log
into all
the sites that require <br>
it. :) But I can live with that.<br>
<br>
I just hate the fact that I have to have so many. I probably
only
need 10 of them.<br>
