Password Manager

Assignment

Build a secure application for an individual to store many id/password pairs. You may use any suitable programming language and cryptographic library. The task requires the ability to select appropriate cryptographic tools and proper use of a cryptographic API.

Password Storage Application

• The id/password pairs along with a description are to be stored in an encrypted file.
• Access to the file is controlled with a master password which is set on first use and can later be changed.
• The master-user can add, remove (and modify) all the stored id/password pairs and descriptions. This description is deliberately skeletal as I would prefer different groups to implement the application in different ways. Lab sessions will be used to support the development and you should also make use of these to discuss your plans.
