    "Good Generator, bad secure storage"

    April 18, 2012  |   By RSmith12573

    Version: Random Password Generator 1.2

    Pros

    Very easy to use Pass Generator that can generate up to 100 passwords at a time. I use it all the time at least once every three months to update critical passwords (financial, vpn, web site admin access, etc.)I can see how this would work well in a SOHO too.

    Cons

    Found a backdoor to get into the password "vault" (password storage) No I will not tell you how one can easily hack in and retrieve passwords (seriously a baby could figure it out). So as long as you use it ONLY to generate you passwords, pin#'a and etc. you will be fine. I suggest looking elsewhere for a more secure password vault.

    Summary

    Very good for password generation.. would like to see a list of avail. algorithms that could be used for generation (ie. DoD). Needs better security in it's password storage. For password storage there are plenty of other free apps on download.com that can be used. You could find an app that has a generator and more secure storage, but they are usually only a trial version even when they claim it's free.

    Version: Random Password Generator 1.2

    Pros

    Nothing positive compared to Password Promoter

    Far to complex compared to Password Promoter

    I find no singular advantage over the very simple and lean Password Promoter that was also free several years ago.
