Presumably this print out includes an instruction manual for using FreeBSD, opening a terminal on a FreeBSD machine, launching a shell inside a jail, and accessing this "user friendly" software? Exactly how technical is your family? Forgive my disbelief that this is an actual solution for anyone but yourself. > but I have not much of an idea how everything works behind the curtain You could choose to learn: https://1passwordstatic.com/files/security/1password-white-paper.pdf https://1passwordstatic.com/files/security/1password-white-p... Any good password manager documents this stuff very well. LastPass has a very shallow white paper that constantly refers to encrypting "sensitive data", but they never define what that sensitive data is, which is suspicious, and it turns out that LastPass doesn't encrypt everything, which everyone who cares about this stuff has known for years. In the 1Password document, they talk about how every item in the vault is encrypted, and every item contains various fields such as Title, URL, etc. 1Password encrypts everything. 1Password also talks about the benefits of using a user password plus a generated 128-bit "Secret Key" (2SKD), which is a security feature I strongly appreciate.
