KeePassXC uses the KeePass 2.x password data format (.kdbx) as native format. This fork is built from The libraries QT5, so that is a multiplatform application, which can be run on different platforms such as Linux Windows and macOS. Data can be stored in both local encrypted storage and external cloud storage. It provides a means to securely store not only ordinary passwords, but also one-time passwords (TOTP), SSH keys, and other information that the user considers sensitive. This application started as a fork of the KeePassX community (itself a KeePass port) due to what was considered to be very slow development of KeePassX, and the lack of response from its maintainer. KeePassXC is Open Source, and easy to use but has a wealth of features for those who want more control over their password storage.Few days ago the release of the new version of KeePassXC 2.7 was announced in which several significant changes have been made, of which we can highlight the new unlocking methods related to the OS, improvements in the tools and much more.įor those who are unaware of KeePassXC, they should know that this is a free password manager and open source licensed under the GNU Public License. KeePassXC is a port of KeePassX, which in turn is a port of KeePass Password Safe. KeePassXC also has KeePassHTTP support for PassIFox in Mozilla Firefox, chromeIPass in Google Chrome or Chromium, and passafari in Safari. Other features include auto-type, Twofish encryption, YubiKey challenge-response, TOTP generation, CSV import, command-line interface, DEP and ASLR hardening, stand-alone password and passphrase generator, password strength meter, and more. You need to set a master password, something you won't forget or maybe have written down.

They are easy to set up, but you can get lost in the options, including the expiration date, icons, properties, and more. Multiple databases are supported as well as multiple groupings within each database. On the first startup, you will need to create a database named whatever you like.

KeePassXC is a community fork of KeePassX to extend and improve it with new features and bug fixes.
