Passfindr secures your content with the Advanced Encryption Standard
AES-256 in GCM mode with a 256-bit key. Each time you encrypt your sensitive data, the encryption key is generated from a one-way salted hash and your Master Password. This means that each of your encrypted sensitive data is secured with an individual and locally generated key. Your Master Password never leaves your web browser. Passfindr generates the encryption key using the
PBKDF2-SHA256 password based key derivation function.
Encrypted data is then transmitted over a
TLS secured internet connection and stored on Passfindr's back end storage.
