Under 1.1.18 there was a pref selection for encryption vise obscuring of sensitive data during storage. Is it correct to assume that SM 2.0 now encrypts sensitive data by default, and with what strength? Strong 128 bit?..I hope...

No, it doesn't encrypt by default, only obscure. You need to set a Master Password to get encryption of login data and to choose a strong Master Password to get actual security.

Ok - that's good to know, and what I've done as far as using a Master Password goes. Sure would be nice if there were some indication of what's going on for the user...like before.


...it would also be nice if the Password Quality meter that appears when changing the Master Password were available as a Tool (appearing in it's own window) for aide in selecting strong passwords at any time.

I'm pretty sure there are other such tools out there... ;-)

Yes, and I have some - but seeing as this capability is already built into SM, it would be nice to be able to access it as an integrated Tool.
