PassLocker

Most modern services require a password in order to keep your account and personal data safe. however, you can’t always rely on your memory to remember all password, especially if you have a different one for every account. Luckily, application like PassLocker are created for this exact purpose.

The first time you launch the application, a prompt shows up so you can create an initial password for the container that is going to hold all your account details. It needs to be confirmed as well, with a small prompt informing you about the strength, and offering the possibility to have a new one generated.

When the main window shows up, you’re free to take some time and go through all the application has to offer. This is recommended, since it can be a little confusing at first. Multiple repositories can be created and exported, each with its own password, acting as secure vaults for multiple account groups.

On the other hand, you can manage different types of accounts, with a side panel already putting several predefined categories at your disposal, such as Internet, email, network, credit cards, and personal. You’re free to use the presets, or create your own.

Most of the interface is filled with various requirement fields, so you can quickly add new values. These aren’t abundant and can’t be changed, even though there are multiple categories. The password generator can be used in the creation process, in case you’re not really inspired for a new code. Moreover, you can set an expiration date, add notes, or even PIN. In case you’re not at the computer for a while, the application automatically minimizes itself to the system tray and locking down, so nobody can access personal info.

Bottom line is that personal details need to be kept safe, especially when they’re used over the web. The interface might seem a bit confusing at first, because of the various features cluttering the interface. However, functions like the password generator and automatic lock make it worth at least a try.
