Description abylon KEYSAFE

abylon KEYSAFE is a password manager for a simple administration of passwords, access data, accounts or further information. The whole data is encrypted with the Blowfish- (448 bit) or AES-algorithm (256 bit) in one XML-File. In case of the SYMM-System, the access to the abylon KEYSAFE occurs with a password, 'EC Moneycard' or 'Health Insurance Card'. In case of the HYBRID-System the access management with X.509 certificates (Smartcard and USB-Token support) occurs. The software supports Drag&Drop and a abylon KEYGENERATOR to create secure passwords for your applications and internet.
