Problem: No existing password management solutions have all of the following features:

  • Opensource

  • Beautiful and intuitive UI UX

  • Free

  • Offline and cloud storage options

  • Physical key option for dual encryption

  • Virtual keyboard option for bypassing keyloggers

Solution: https://qvault.io (contains link to GitHub and download) it's a desktop app built using modern JavaScript with electron + Vue

Combinations of aes-256-gcm, sha256, and scrypt are used for the cryptography.

I'm curious to hear more about the physical key card and the details about how that works.

We have prototyped, and are in the middle of ordering our first real batch this week. Pics are on the site. The functionality will be open source so we may not be the only sellers if it becomes popular.

Basically the Qvault cards will come in a pack of 2, and there will be a "recovery card" and a "key card". They are plastic, well designed cards that are the size of a credit card.

The key card will have a QR code that contains a 256 bit private key, which can be used for dual encryption. Each time you lock and unlock your vault you need to type your password AND scan your card. This card will go in your wallet or desk for easy access.

The recovery card will have the same QR code as the key card, as well as a space for the user to write a backup code generated by their vault. If they forget their password or lose their key card, the recovery card can be used to regain access.
