Hans-G?nter@22987 1 KeePassX is an application for people with extremly high demands on
Hans-G?nter@22987 2 secure personal data management. It has a light interface, is cross
Hans-G?nter@22987 3 platform and published under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

Hans-G?nter@22987 5 KeePassX saves many different information e.g. user names, passwords,
Hans-G?nter@22987 6 urls, attachments and comments in one single database. For a better
Hans-G?nter@22987 7 management user-defined titles and icons can be specified for each
Hans-G?nter@22987 8 single entry. Furthermore the entries are sorted in groups, which
Hans-G?nter@22987 9 are customizable as well. The integrated search function allows to
Hans-G?nter@22987 10 search in a single group or the complete database.
Hans-G?nter@22987 11 KeePassX offers a little utility for secure password generation.
Hans-G?nter@22987 12 The password generator is very customizable, fast and easy to use.
Hans-G?nter@22987 13 Especially someone who generates passwords frequently will appreciate
Hans-G?nter@22987 14 this feature.
Hans-G?nter@22987 15
Hans-G?nter@22987 16 The complete database is always encrypted either with AES (alias Rijndael)
Hans-G?nter@22987 17 or Twofish encryption algorithm using a 256 bit key. Therefore the saved
Hans-G?nter@22987 18 information can be considered as quite safe. KeePassX uses a database
Hans-G?nter@22987 19 format that is compatible with KeePass Password Safe. This makes the use
Hans-G?nter@22987 20 of that application even more favourable.

Hans-G?nter@22987 22 Originally KeePassX was called KeePass/L for Linux since it was a port
Hans-G?nter@22987 23 of Windows password manager Keepass Password Safe. After KeePass/L became
Hans-G?nter@22987 24 a cross platform application the name was not appropriate anymore and
Hans-G?nter@22987 25 therefore, on 22 March 2006 it has been changed.
