RG PASSWORD SAFE : Store personal passwords in a secure environment with this approachable tool that uses the Rijndael algorithm and a 256-bit encryption key
RG PASSWORD SAFE is an application you can use to keep your personal passwords stored in a secure environment, especially if you share your computer with other users.
Setup and prerequisites
It contains an intuitive set of options that can be easily tackled, and encrypts data using the Rijndael algorithm and a 256-bit encryption key.Installing this tool takes little time and effort, since there are no unfamiliar buttons or third-party offers involved. However, you must have .NET Framework, otherwise it won't launch.
Create encrypted files
At startup, you're greeted by a small panel that asks you to enter and confirm a master password, which will be required every time you want to access the program. It must have at least 8 characters. RG PASSWORD SAFE determines its level of safety.In the following step, it's necessary to specify the output directory and file name for storing the encrypted database, which receives the .RGEncrypted extension.
Manage accounts and generate random keys
The main application window shows up right afterward. It adopts a standard .NET Framework form with a simple design and neatly structured layout, where you can add accounts by indicating the account title, login ID, password, and any helpful notes.There's also a random key generator at your disposal that creates new and strong passwords with one click, made from lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers and symbols.It's possible to add as many accounts as you want, cut, copy and paste data, easily toggle accounts, and delete the ones you don't need anymore.
Evaluation and conclusion
It worked smoothly in our tests, without triggering the OS to hang, crash or display error messages. CPU and RAM usage was minimal, so it didn't hamper the computer's performance.Its interface could use some improvements in the graphical department, though. Other than that, RG PASSWORD SAFE provides you with a simple and straightforward solution for keeping account passwords locked up in a safe environment.
