Also, you can indeed add a keyfile to an existing database, the same way you would change the database's password: go to File -> Change Master Key… and add a keyfile in the dialog there You can change to any of these combinations at any time
- Which would be the best keyfile for KeepassXC and or Veracrypt?
Which keyfile is best (i e , most random and harder to break through): one generated by Veracrypt or one by KeepassXC? OR: Is it best to create my own keyfile?: I can open a photo with TextEdit, copy and paste the gibberish that shows up in an empty TextEdit file, save and use that as my keyfile Is that be better?
- How does a key file increase the security of a password manager?
If the keyfile is additionally encrypted with a password (as you should) then he also needs something you know So this is two factors of authentication If you store the keyfile along the database, an attacker would "just" need to bruteforce or dictionary attack the keyfile (which is a lot smaller and takes a lot less time than attack the whole database)
- Keyfile vs. password: convenience vs. security? - SourceForge
The keyfile lives in a Sony Puppy authentication device (smart USB device, with microprocessor and fingerprint reader) I can keep the Puppy lying around all the time, because the keyfile isn't accessible without my fingerprint It isn't a perfect solution, but I've found it to be pretty good
- Yubikey as storage for keyfile - SourceForge
First, use the menu "Tools -> Keyfile generator" to create a random keyfile and store it on disk (ideally it should be stored in a mounted VeraCrypt volume to avoid leaking keyfile content) Then, use the menu "Tools -> Managed Security Token Keyfiles" to import the generated keyfile into the Yubikey
- Keepass Yubikey: what is the benefit of Yubikey over a keyfile
I use a simple keyfile on a USB key and have it backed up in various places My kbdx files are also backed up in various places I assume that one day my home will be burgled or burn down The effort involved in keeping these backups is negligible and I see no risk of losing access to my passwords in Keepass However, although I am fortunately
- KeePass Key File - Does it provide any meaningful security?
The keyfile for KeePass is just another kind of passphrase, as it is stated in the Keepass Documentation: A key file is basically a master password in a file Keyfiles are typically stronger than master passwords, because the key can be a lot more complicated; however it's also harder to keep them secret
- KeePass Discussion Help: Removing keyfile - SourceForge
Go to menu File Change Master Key For the new key, use only password and that's it Guess in your case, you would like to use the same password you have right now Type it
