<p>The offline nature of KeePass makes it so that it is nearly impossible to crack. Connecting things to the internet makes it trivial for a script kiddie thousands of kilometers away from you to attempt to crack your passwords. A password manager is a place where all of your passwords are stored. Due to this very reason, I decided to upgrade my security by moving to a reputed piece of software.</p> <p>The offline nature of KeePass makes it so that it is nearly impossible to crack.

<p>It has a plethora of security features. Firstly, it has the ability to generate passwords of any length. It allows you to choose what characters are allowed. Its generation is so complex and liberating that even foreign characters like <code>Æ</code>, <code>É</code>, or even mathematics symbols and arbitrary symbols that no one would care about can be used. For example, the division sign (÷) or the copyright symbol (©) are included in password generation. Since most hackers try alphanumeric character cracking, KeePass password generation can make your passwords practically impossible to crack.</p> <p>It has a plethora of security features.

<p>The encryption algorithm used for your password database is AES-256, commonly known as 256-bit encryption. It is a form of encryption that is so difficult to crack that the only way you can actually hope to obtain someone's password is by phishing them or using external methods.

<p>In fact, KeePass is so secure that even the passwords that are stored in your memory while you are viewing your database is encrypted. That way, even a <a href='../../definitions/management-engine' style='color:#50fa7b'>management engine</a> attack will not work. If you want to try viewing the cleared memory sectors to find remnants of your passwords, good luck. The passwords which are stored in your memory are first overwritten to the point of unrecoverability before being cleared.</p> <p>In fact, KeePass is so secure that even the passwords that are stored in your memory while you are viewing your database is encrypted.
