Hello everyone. I know this question pops up every once in a while
but I'm wondering what people from the MHVLUG are using to deal with
all the many passwords that we have to keep today.
Another way would be to use a service online but that would not work
when I need it off line.
I'm thinking it might be interesting to put passwords in a USB key
and protect them some how.
I have used PGPDisk to create a small (512MB) pgpdisk, and put it on a
USB stick. On that PGPdisk I store a text file with passwords, credit
card data, or any other sensitive information I needed. Seemed to work
well.
But then again, my desktop is a mac, so the UI for such is very very
easy to use. No idea how/if GPG would be able to do such a thing...
Cheers,
