You probably want a password which is quite easy to remember and type - you’ll be typing it in a lot, but on the other hand you don’t want anyone else accessing your database. You can either protect it by using key files, or a password. Use the first button on the toolbar to create a new database. When you open it, you’ll see a blank window.
#Keepassx 2.0 install
Install KeePassX from the Ubuntu Software Centre Install keepassx from the command line or install it from the Software Centre: Using KeePassX in UbuntuĬonveniently, KeePassX already has packages in Ubuntu available for installation. It bests KeePass 2 with a nicer, more native looking interface. It started out as a Linux port of KeePass, but eventually evolved as its own app. My favourite of all those I tested was KeePassX. While this is a perfectly capable app, very similar to the tool I’m going to talk about in a minute, it doesn’t provide official Linux packages, and the community ports, while serviceable, aren’t the nicest looking apps out there. However, I found the interface lacking, and the number of tools and options on offer was overwhelming. It’s probably the most known tool for managing your passwords, and since it’s based on the web, it’s the most cross platform of them all. With that in mind I recently tried out several secure password managers to try and find something secure, but also easy to use and cross-platform.įirst, I went to LastPass.
With security issues becoming more and more important, the emphasis on secure passwords (as well as other methods like multiple step authentication) has never been greater.
