Although they have friendly interfaces, there’s still enough flexibility to add support for non-standard stuff, such as the Steam game client’s proprietary one-time codes. Both KeeWeb and AuthPass support the KDBX database standard, and you can activate features such as one-time codes, browser plugins, attached files, and cloud storage support with a click or two. If you want to get into using the KeePass ecosystem, I recommend using a friendlier app. Some of their features require you to enter code strings in specific locations, and both have interfaces that feel like something out of the early 2000s. KeePass and its cross-platform port, KeePassXC, have an unparalleled range of features, but can feel unfriendly to use. Neither KeePass nor its extensions and compatible applications cost a penny. It’s obviously the perfect choice for security enthusiasts, but it isn’t just for the hardcore. You can customise everything from your encryption protocol, to your interface and browser plugin selection, to your second factors and passwordless logins. My own setup uses KeeWeb on Linux, the first-party KeePass 2 app for Windows, and AuthPass on Android – all accessing a shared database file that I keep on a secure cloud server that I control. It’s both an application and a standard, with multiple apps that can access KeePass database (KDBX) files and handle their associated encryption standard. KeePass is free, open source software to the core, with no paid-for components or licenses whatsoever. Browser extensions Chrome, Firefox, IE, Edge Chrome, Opera, Safari.Stand-alone clients Windows, Linux, macOS, BSD, Android (Play & F-Droid), iOS.Security AES-256, ChaCha20 (the latter for memory protection), third-party extensions allow the addition of other algorithms.
