Sounds interesting, but requires a password program, a 3rd party plugin for the program, and a browser plugin... and yet another app to do cloud sync like Dropbox.
Sounds like a huge pain compared to LastPass, as well as increasing attack surface.
- tscs37 10y agoIt kinda is. I just dropped the database on my Nextcloud instance though, which has so far not suddenly caught fire.
- icc97 10y agoLastPass is a Cloud password program + browser plugin So the extra layer is the plugin that is written by the same developer as the browser plugin. Which is a drop in plugin. It's all open source so it's much easier for people to check the vulnerabilities. It's also easier to raise issues and other people to help fix them. Separately Keepass is an offline database, so you have total control over access to it. The overhead of course is using something like Dropbox, plus probably Boxcryptor to ensure it's encrypted before it gets to Dropbox. I've commented elsewhere here - it's similar to the Keepass bazaar vs the LastPass cathedral. Keepass might look uglier, but I trust it more.
