Paranoia Password Manager
A fresh start...
The old PPM project for Firefox has been abandoned and we thought that the new PPM project would deserve a new and more functional web site. So, this is it...
What is Paranoia?
Paranoia is a secure private password management extension for Google Chrome.
Most importantly, Paranoia is different from other password management applications in the way that it does not use a public server to store your data. You will have to set up your own private password storage (apache, php, mysql).
Also, Paranoia uses Encryption Schemes(ES). ES are very simple external javascript modules loaded into PPM at startup capable of 256bit AES(CTR/Counter mode) encryption. However, instead of encrypting your data with a single pass, they can do much more - mix up characters, add padding, do double/tripple/100X encryption on the input string, etc. For the PPM release candidate we have prepared 5 ES modules but the idea is to allow users to create their own private ES, and/or share them with other Paranoia users.
Paranoia for now it does one thing. It gives you the possibility to register PassCards and during navigation on matching Urls it will fill in the login forms for you.
What is NOT Paranoia?
Paranoia, for now, is not a complete application. It misses quite a lot of features, especially commodities, that other similar applications have. It, however, works (and I'd like to add it does not have annoying popups "Do you want this/that?").
Paranoia is not for dummies. Even though the installation process is not at all difficult, it requires you to have access to at least one server where you can set up an Apache vhost and a MySql database.
