Hashauth is a set of tools that helps you manage your passwords. Hashauth differs from traditional 'password managers' by deriving your passwords from mathematical functions (hash functions) rather than storing them on disk, and thus is completely liberated from password databases. Key features ------------ * Helps you manage (most of) your passwords. * Strong unique passwords for each resource (websites, e-mail accounts, IMs, etc..). * Does not depend on an encrypted password databases, or other external data. Hashauth is completely stateless. * For each resource, Hashauth requires the master password and the resource name to derive your password. * The resource name is an arbitrary string, but could be the domain name of a site, which is easy to remember.
