Cypher Password Manager

License: MIT

Cypher is a secure, open-source password manager that prioritizes your privacy by performing all encryption and decryption operations directly on your device. Your sensitive data never leaves your computer in an unencrypted form.

Security Features

  • 256-bit AES Encryption: Military-grade encryption for all stored credentials
  • PBKDF2 Key Derivation: Protects against brute-force attacks by making password hashing computationally intensive
  • SHA-256 Hashing: Ensures data integrity and secure password verification
  • Zero-Knowledge Architecture: Your data is encrypted before it reaches our servers
  • Client-Side Operations: All encryption/decryption happens locally on your device
  • No Plaintext Storage: Sensitive data is never stored in readable form

How It Works

  1. Master Password: Users create a strong master password that never leaves their device
  2. Key Derivation: PBKDF2 generates an encryption key from the master password
  3. Local Encryption: Passwords and sensitive data are encrypted using AES-256
  4. Secure Storage: Only encrypted data is synchronized with our servers
  5. Local Decryption: Data is decrypted on-demand using your master password

Features

  • Cross-Platform Support: Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux
  • Browser Extensions: Seamless integration with major browsers
  • Secure Password Generator: Create strong, unique passwords
  • Two-Factor Authentication: Additional security layer for vault access
