KeepSolid ID and Master Password Importance in Passwarden

One of the major causes for people to start using password managers is to get rid of remembering thousands of passwords. You only need to know one thing - your password manager passcode, and the password manager app will do the rest. That sounds great!

 

However, the KeepSolid team believes that users' privacy is more important than anything else. That’s why we add an extra layer of security by using two complex passwords to unlock our password manager: KeepSolid ID passcode and Master Password.

 

Now let’s take a closer look at how exactly these two passwords protect your data integrity and check out if it's worth remembering one more password.

KeepSolid ID Password

Just so we are on the same page, KeepSolid ID is a single account for all our security and productivity solutions. To get started with Passwarden or any other KeepSolid services, you need to create a KeepSolid ID, if you haven’t it yet.

 

Such a decision is convenient for several reasons. Firstly, you haven’t to remember numerous passwords if you use several KeepSolid apps. Secondly, we provide our customers with the KeepSolid User Office - a personal control center where you can easily manage all your subscriptions.

Master Password

Master Password is a special password from your Passwarden profile. This password reliably protects all your Passwarden data and takes a part in the encryption and decryption processes.

 

At the time you set up your Master Password, our secure password manager generates random encryption keys on your device and encrypts them using your Master Password. From now on, all Passwarden data will be scrambled using these encryption keys. As Master Password plays a crucial role in data encryption, it goes without saying that the KeepSolid developer’s team has no access to it.

Why we can't reset your Master Password

End-to-end encryption guarantees that data encryption and decryption are realized on the user’s device but not on our servers. Your sensitive information is unavailable for third parties while it is transferred from your device to our cloud servers. We don’t have access to your items, Vaults, or Master Password as well.

Anyway, we strongly recommend you to keep this super-secret key somewhere safe. Otherwise, there’s no other way to regain access to your Passwarden profile.
