Pleasant Password Server is a proprietary, multi-user enterprise password server that is fully compatible with a modified version of the KeePass Password Safe. Designed for business users, the password server provides access provisioning as well as per-group and per-entry access restrictions. [1] [2] Pleasant Password Server supports the use of ...
The simplest example of a challenge-response protocol is password authentication, where the challenge is asking for the password and the valid response is the correct password. An adversary who can eavesdrop on a password authentication can then authenticate itself by reusing the intercepted password.
The Secure Remote Password protocol (SRP) is an augmented password-authenticated key exchange (PAKE) protocol, specifically designed to work around existing patents.. Like all PAKE protocols, an eavesdropper or man in the middle cannot obtain enough information to be able to brute-force guess a password or apply a dictionary attack without further interactions with the parties for each guess.
Database encryption. Database encryption can generally be defined as a process that uses an algorithm to transform data stored in a database into "cipher text" that is incomprehensible without first being decrypted. [1] It can therefore be said that the purpose of database encryption is to protect the data stored in a database from being ...
Authentication protocol. An authentication protocol is a type of computer communications protocol or cryptographic protocol specifically designed for transfer of authentication data between two entities. It allows the receiving entity to authenticate the connecting entity (e.g. Client connecting to a Server) as well as authenticate itself to ...
KeePassXC is a free and open-source password manager. It started as a community fork of KeePassX (itself a cross-platform port of KeePass). It is built using Qt5 libraries, making it a multi-platform application which can be run on Linux, Windows, macOS, and BSD. KeePassXC uses the KeePass 2.x (.kdbx) password database format natively.
Since the authentication server has to store the password in clear-text, it is impossible to use different formats for the stored password. If an attacker were to steal the entire database of passwords, all of those passwords would be visible "in the clear" in the database.
Description RSA SecurID token (older style, model SD600) RSA SecurID token (model SID700) RSA SecurID (new style, SID800 model with smartcard functionality) The RSA SecurID authentication mechanism consists of a "token"—either hardware (e.g. a key fob) or software (a soft token)—which is assigned to a computer user and which creates an authentication code at fixed intervals (usually 60 ...
