What a coincidence as I'm reading up on deterministic password generators:
- DPG: https://plevyak.com/dpg.html https://plevyak.com/dpg.html
- MasterPassword: https://masterpassword.app/ https://masterpassword.app/
- LessPass: https://lesspass.com/ https://lesspass.com/
I like the idea of such mechanism for my passwords, but I feel like having to enter a masterpassword so often actually poses as a vunerability. The password managers I currently use, normally enables me to use fingerprint or leaves some minutes before timing out so that I don't need to enter my master password as often.
One idea I'm having is to combine the deterministic and stateless aspect of a simple js generator, with a simple db that user can maintain with a online spreadsheet:
1.this db would store states for the calculator that user would need to manually re-enter, and it's URL would be only known to user (say a Google sheets, json URL)
2. This URL would be stored for limited time on browser cache improving UX for short period of time.
3. The db itself won't store secrets, just "metadata"
- polm23 6y agoI've been using PasswordMaker for years for this and been quite happy with it. https://passwordmaker.org/passwordmaker.html https://passwordmaker.org/passwordmaker.html On Chrome the extension you want is PasswordMaker Pro (not paid, it's just a name). It allows you to save profiles for different domains and saves them wherever it is Chrome extensions save data.
