QSifre

Developed in Qt, QSifre is an application you can use to create a safe environment for storing password-protected accounts. It uses the AES-256 security algorithm and has a built-in password generator to help you create random and secure keys when you run out of ideas.

Unfortunately, the interface doesn't highlight ease of use, and it may be a bit confusing when launching QSifre for the first time. You can get started by setting and confirming a master password in the Login tab, which will be used for creating the vault and required every time you want to deploy the program to get access to your accounts or create new ones. Make sure to remember the password because there is no feature integrated for recovering it.

In the following step, log in with your master password and go to the Add/Remove tab to create new entries and edit properties. A new account can be inserted by specifying the title (display name, so you can identify the account in the list), username, password, email address, webpage, and comments.

Next to the password box is a dice button that you can click to generate a random and secure key, made from lower and upper case letters along with numbers.

It's possible to create as many entries as you want, modify existing properties by double-clicking the items in the list, as well as to remove any account from the vault if you change your mind.

In the Clipboard tab, you can click the listed buttons to instantly copy to the Clipboard any part of the account, whether it's the user name, password, email address, domain, or comment (Other button). Before doing so, make sure to select an entry from the list to tell QSifre where to copy the information from.

The master password can be changed from the Settings panel, while the session time before auto-locking the database can be changed (between 5 and 300 minutes). Moreover, in case of emergency, you can delete all data with the click of a button (Reset tab).

All things considered, QSifre delivers a quick and effective method for securing your accounts in a vault. However, the interface needs more work.
