<metaitemprop="description"content="Do you also reuse simple passwords? Master Password makes secure passwords for you. What's more: they aren't saved and cannot get lost!"/>
<p>Just like the rest of the world, your passwords are too simple or reused between many sites. To hackers, <em>your accounts are like an empty house with the door left open</em>.</p>
<p>I'm sure you've <em>tried</em> to do better. Maybe you keep a notebook or post-it with passwords. Maybe you even store your passwords in a program or just in your browser. The problem with putting your passwords somewhere "safe" is two-fold: Somebody can <em>steal them</em>, and you can <em>lose them</em>.</p>
<p><strong>Master Password is a <em>stateless solution</em></strong>, which means <strong>your passwords aren't saved <em>anywhere</em></strong>. Not in your head, not in a notebook, not on your computer and not in the cloud.<br/>
Nothing to store means nothing to keep safe and nothing to lose.</p>
<p>Master Password just recreates the passwords for your sites whenever you need them: instantly and on-demand. At the same time it makes sure that your accounts are adequately protected with <em>secure and unique</em> passwords.</p>
<p>Master Password is <strong>different</strong> from other vault-like password solutions. It helps you set <strong>secure passwords</strong> for your sites, and at the same time makes <strong>losing your passwords almost impossible</strong>. It requires <spanitemprop="operatingsystems">iOS</span><spanitemprop="softwareversion">5.0</span>, but a <ahref="https://github.com/Lyndir/MasterPassword/tree/master/MasterPassword/Java">Java & CLI</a> version exists too. A <ahref="https://github.com/Lyndir/MasterPassword/tree/master/MasterPassword/Mac">Mac</a> version is under development.</p>
<p>Built on algorithms such as <ahref="http://www.bsdcan.org/2009/schedule/events/147.en.html"onclick="_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outbound/scrypt']);">scrypt</a> and <ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAC"onclick="_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outbound/HMAC']);">HMAC-SHA256</a>, your master password is kept safe even if websites you use get hacked.</p>
<p>As to prove a point, <ahref="http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/linkedin-eharmony-deal-with-breach-aftermath/2012/06/07/gJQAwqs5KV_story.html"onclick="_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outbound/linkedin-breach']);"><strong>LinkedIn</strong>, <strong>eHarmony</strong></a>, <ahref="http://securitywatch.pcmag.com/none/298865-last-fm-joins-eharmony-linkedin-to-celebrate-breach-week"onclick="_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outbound/lastfm-breach']);"><strong>Last.FM</strong></a> and <ahref="http://www.switchfast.com/switchfast-blog/2012/7/13/latest-password-leak-affects-yahoo,-gmail,-and-aol-users.aspx"onclick="_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outbound/yahoo-breach']);"><strong>Yahoo!</strong></a> have announced breaches that compromise millions of passwords in the past few months alone. These breaches usually leak "<em>hashes</em>" of people's passwords, which make it trivial for attackers to find out the actual passwords <em>if they're not secure enough</em>.</p>
Master Password's <strong>presets allow you to comply with</strong> almost any site's restrictive <strong>password policies</strong>, while still producing as secure a password for them as they permit.
It's really easy to use the password on your iPhone: Just <strong>tap the password to copy it</strong> and paste it in a different application's password field.<br/>
Goodbye, annoying App Store password pop-up.
