![]() ![]() The process uses ports to connect to or from a LAN or the Internet. The software starts upon Windows startup (see Registry key: Run, User Shell Folders). It is a file with no information about its developer. SafeInCloud.exe is not a Windows core file. Known file sizes on Windows 10/11/7 are 2,325,504 bytes (26% of all occurrences), 2,323,456 bytes and 9 more variants. SafeInCloud.exe is located in a subfolder of "C:\Program Files (x86)"-common is C:\Program Files (x86)\Safe In Cloud\. The process known as SafeInCloud belongs to software SafeInCloud Password Manager or SafeInCloud by Andrey Shcherbakov.ĭescription: SafeInCloud.exe is not essential for the Windows OS and causes relatively few problems. Better me than someone with a weaker file information SafeInCloud.exe process in Windows Task Manager I actually /hope/ that someone has already stolen my LastPass database and is currently wasting their time and money trying to brute force my password. ![]() KeePass users may never know if their database is stolen from Dropbox or their own device, but LastPass informs its users of potential breaches as soon as possible. Does the service inform its users and take steps to prevent further breaches? LastPass does. Is it *designed* to remain secure even when breached? LastPass is. The question is what happens when a service is breached. LastPass saw one instance of after-hours server activity and immediately told the world.īreaches are inevitable. Yahoo lost 500 million account credentials in 2014 and kept it a secret until someone /else/ discovered it just recently. It’s fine to use a non-cloud solution that it right for you, but LastPass has proven themselves to be an extremely responsible company. LastPass /tries/ to keep your database private (and they’ve done a good job), but it’s up to YOU to make it secure by using a strong password. Any truly /random/ set of 14 or more ASCII characters is effectively unguessable. ![]() With LastPass, you aren’t depending upon the company to protect your database, but are instead depending upon your master password. A thief gets only an encrypted blob, NOT your passwords. That’s the WHOLE POINT of the LastPass paradigm. LastPass stores only your /encrypted/ password vault, so it DOESN’T MATTER if someone breaks into LastPass and steals your vault. LastPass detected unauthorized access to its servers, but your passwords are still just as protected as they were before. Now You: Do you use a password manager? If so which, and why? While they do away with password storage, they are not immune to attacks and may be limited in terms of what other data - if any - can be saved by them. ![]() Closing Wordsĭeterministic password managers offer an interesting approach to password management. Additionally, depending on functionality, these password managers may not offer options to store additional data, security question answers for instance. Password renewal may also be an issue if the service does not offer an option to do so. Since users need to somehow get the password displayed in the programs and enter them on a website or application, it means that they will either be copied to the clipboard, or entered manually using the keyboard.ĭepending on the level of complexity of the service, getting hold of the master password may give you access to all password unless the product users other security precautions (like Forgiva does). While deterministic password managers do away with storage, they are as susceptible to certain attack forms than regular password managers. All that is needed is access to the application, the master password, and maybe other data depending on the product, to gain access to all information. The main advantage they offer over conventional password managers is that attackers cannot dump the password manager database file either by attacking a local device or a company that stores the data in the cloud.Īlso, since passwords are not stored in a database, there is no syncing involved to gain access to passwords across devices. ![]()
