My biggest fear with a local password manager is a keylogger stealing the master password. I wished local password managers had a way that they would only disclose a single password when using a yubikey rather than opening/decrypting the whole vault.
- n4bz0r 5y agoDon't know about other managers, but in Keepass you can use key file [0][1] alongside master password. There is also an option to lock the db behind a Windows account [2]. Not sure if it's a good idea, though. > One master password decrypts the complete database. > Alternatively you can use key files. Key files provide better security than master passwords in most cases. You only have to carry the key file with you, for example on a floppy disk, USB stick, or you can burn it onto a CD. Of course, you shouldn't lose this disk then. > For even more security you can combine the above two methods: the database then requires the key file and the password in order to be unlocked. Even if you lose your key file, the database would remain secure.
