vPass 2 is a simple and convenient Javascript secure password generator.

Hello,

I slowly made version 2 of my “otherworldly” project - vPass . If interested, here in the comments an interesting discussion of the first version.

In short, why is this all?

For each site you need to come up with a unique password.
Remembering truly unique passwords is not possible.
The problem is solved by password managers, but they, as a rule, are only for one platform.

vPass takes your master password (for example, `my_password`) and, as a rule, the domain of the current site (for example,` http: // accounts.google.com` becomes `google`) and creates a set of 12 letters, numbers and symbols (for example, `0EQu $ MwEm? Qt`).

Here is a 30 second demo:

Now you can use a unique password for each site, and you need to remember only one master password.

Your master password does not leave your computer. vPass is pure Javascript, and does not send data to the server. Works wherever there is a browser - Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Android, iOS, Windows Phone, webOS, etc.

Bookmarklet
Drag this link → vPass ← to the bookmarks bar.

For iPhone / iPad
Open vPass in a mobile browser, click "Share", then "Add to Home screen".

For Android
Open vPass in a mobile browser, add a bookmark, open bookmarks, click and hold vpass.info, then “Add to Home screen”.

Local copy
Be sure to download vPass to your computer for backup: vpass.zip .

In the bookmarklet and extensions, the “domain” is filled automatically from the address of the current page.
Type the master password and press Enter .
To see the typed password (and avoid errors), press Ctrl(Cmd,Alt) + Enter .
Chrome & Safari extensions will automatically insert the generated password into the input field on the page if there is a cursor there.

Why vPass, not LastPass / KeePass / 1Password / RoboForm / etc?
I tried them all. Ideal not found. vPass is also not ideal, it just reflects my approach. I hope you will do!

Why all the unique passwords?

How safe is vPass?
Exactly how secure your master password is. And since vPass is not popular at all, no one will guess that you are using it.

How to come up with a good master password?

And if the site vPass.info disconnect?
Therefore, you must keep a copy of the vPass . By the way, the logs are disabled on the server, and as I have already mentioned, I do not receive any data from the pages.

Briefly about me - I am Vlad Gerasimov, and my site is Vladstudio.com .
Send your admiration and horror to vladstudio@gmail.com .

vPass was inspired by SuperGenPass .

UPDATE - from correspondence -

In general, should come to a sad conclusion. I (gathered to embody all
ideas for vPass 2), explored the topic in more detail, and now came to
the sad conclusion that the bold idea of a universal password generator,
Alas, not universal. At this stage, the "password mess" (when there is no
standards and each site comes up with their own password requirements)
the only normal method is generating a random password for
each site that meets its requirements, and storing them in
the manager. I was a little naive - although of course I got an interesting experience,
developing in Pass, and maybe all the same to someone else he somehow
will come in handy.

I will switch to 1Password :(
