A PasswordCard is a credit card-sized card you keep in your wallet, which lets you pick very secure passwords for all your websites, without having to remember them! You just keep them with you, and even if your wallet does get stolen, the thief will still not know your actual passwords.
A very cute idea, well implemented.
Your PasswordCard has a unique grid of random letters and digits on it. The rows have different colors, and the columns different symbols. All you do is remember a combination of a symbol and a color, and then read the letters and digits from there. It couldn’t be simpler!
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. It’s far safer to pick secure passwords and write them down, than it is to remember simple and easy to guess passwords. You already protect your wallet very well, and even if it does get stolen the thief will still not know which of the many thousands of possibilities on the card is your password.
No, your not missing anything. Its a interesting option, thats all.
Where do you keep your KeepAss master password? Perhaps a password card could be a interesting way to keep/secure the master vault password for a password manager.
Where do you keep your KeepAss master password?
In my head. If you use a long passphrase, it’s easy to remember, easy to type, and secure.
The pregenerated book of codes is used since ancient times and it is interesting, but I would much prefer to educate people to use passphases instead.
And everybody has a phone with them at all times, you can have Keepass on it. It doesn’t use the cloud, it’s local, and if you need to sync the password database file automatically with your PC it’s safe to keep it in the cloud, it’s encrypted and only decrypted locally. But I myself use a self-hosted instance of Nextcloud.
It’s an interesting concept, but I love to carry a wallet as thin as possible.

Fair!
Just remember to never give your secret code to anyone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUVd4cFD5-s
