Keeper (password manager)

Keeper (Password Manager)

Keeper is a password manager application and digital wallet that securely stores website passwords, financial information and other sensitive documents[1] using 256-bit AES encryption, zero-knowledge architecture[2] and two-factor authentication.[3] Files and passwords in Keeper can be synced, backed up in the cloud, and shared using HTTP secure and a locally stored encryption key.[4] Every record in the user's private vault is encrypted and stored with a unique encryption key.[5] Keeper also addresses the problem of password fatigue, by autofilling login and password fields with stored information.[3]

Keeper comes pre-loaded on the Orange Dive 70 smartphone,[2] Samsung phones, América Móvil phones[6] and most AT&T Android phones.[7] As of January 2015, Keeper has more than 9 million registered users[8] and works with over 3,000 companies.[9] Keeper is available for download on Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, Windows Phone, Linux, Kindle, and Nook,[10] and available as a browser extension for IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera.[5]

Keeper is a free service for storing passwords on a single device and has an optional annual subscription with cross-device syncing.[11]

Built into the Keeper application, Keeper DNA provides multi-factor authentication using connected devices, such as a smartwatch, to verify a user's identity when logging into the vault.[12]
