HTPasswd Manager

HTPasswd Manager is a neat program handy in managing flat files employed in storing usernames and passwords for basic authentication of HTTP users. In short, a crucial tool for keeping clients' credentials up to date, within any database.

The application has a familiar UI as well as a popular ribbon design. How so? Well, the aesthetics are heavily influenced by the MS Office pack, which means some users will have an easier time getting around the app.

Security shouldn't be an issue when generating HTPASSWRD files, as each item is encrypted by the crypt_blowfish algorithm, which is also the best one for this specific format.

The app can help one upload HTPASSWD items directly to a remote location. These types of transfers are totally independent, requiring no FTP clients in the mix.

HTPasswd Manager is not designed to only manage credentials, but to also create and assign new ones. If the need arises, the tool can be used to generate new combinations and apply them to any user. For those concerned about security, a password meter should be provided for this specific task.

HTPasswd Manager is more of a niche program, serving with managing one type of format only, the HTPASSWD. It does not appear as difficult at first or complex, yet only those who put the app through some hoops can be certain of its efficiency.
