Password Manager app for Password Manager API

About

Project is still in progress!

  • This project is React based Password Manager frontend app for Password Manager API backend.
  • Backend application is made with Java Spring Boot : Link

Password Manager

Zero-Knowledge Password Management

This password manager operates on the principle of zero-knowledge, ensuring that all sensitive cryptographic operations take place exclusively on the user's side. This means that API service provider have no access to user's plaintext passwords. Your data remains fully encrypted and private, and only you have the keys to unlock it.

How It Works

  • Client-Side Encryption: All cryptographic processes, including encryption and decryption of your passwords, occur locally on your device. Your plaintext data is transformed into its encrypted form before it ever leaves your device, ensuring that only encrypted passwords are transmitted to server.
  • Zero-Knowledge Architecture: We employ a zero-knowledge architecture, meaning that even if servers were compromised, the encrypted data stored there would be meaningless without your unique encryption key. Your key is never transmitted or stored on server.
  • End-to-End Security: Your password and encryption keys are known only to you, and they are never shared with or stored in server side. This ensures that your sensitive information remains confidential and secure.

API

  • This project is React based frontend app for Password Manager API.
  • Backend application is made with Java Spring Boot: Link

Features

  • User Registration and Authentication. Allows users to create an account and authenticate themselves securely.
  • Password Storage and Organization. Provides the ability for users to store and organize their passwords securely in the password manager.
  • Password Generation. Offers an advanced password generation feature that generates strong and unique passwords for users.
  • Encryption and Data Security. Encrypts stored passwords to protect them from unauthorized access.
  • Cross-Platform Access. Lets access passwords from desktops, laptops, and mobile devices.
  • Search. Enables users to search their password entries.
  • Export passwords Allows users to export their data in CSV format to be transferred to other password managers.

Cryptography

Authentication

  • Password-hashing function: bcrypt

Key derivation function

  • PBKDF2 (PBKDF2WithHmacSHA256)
  • Iterations: 100 000
  • Salt: 128 bits (US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recommendation)
  • Generated key length: 256 bits
  • Implemented in accordance with official Crypto-js package

Symmetric encryption

  • Algorithm: AES-256
  • Key length: 256 bits
  • Mode: CBC (Cipher Block Chaining)
  • Block size: 128 bits
  • Initialization vector (IV): 128 bits, random, different for every record
  • Implemented in accordance with official Crypto-js package
