This project is currently under active development and not yet complete. Expect changes, bugs, and incomplete features.
A secure, cross-platform password manager built with Java, Maven, and JavaFX. Supports both command-line and modern graphical interfaces for managing passwords, notes, payment cards, and IDs — all encrypted with AES-GCM and PBKDF2.
- End-to-End Encryption: AES-GCM with PBKDF2 key derivation ensures maximum data protection.
- Dual Interface: Fully functional CLI and GUI with seamless interoperability.
- Multi-Account Support: Create and manage distinct vaults, each with optional PINs and security questions.
- Password Generator: Create strong, random passwords on demand.
- Audit Logs: Monitor access history and track changes.
- Auto-Lock: Vault automatically locks after a period of inactivity.
- Import/Export: Backup or migrate your vault easily.
- Platform-Independent: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
- Java 17 (or newer)
- Maven 3.6+(or Gradle)
