Steganos Password Manager for Windows download

Product summary

Steganos Password Manager provides a safer alternative to writing credentials on scraps of paper. It creates encrypted, password-protected profiles that serve as secure containers for your logins and related information. If you want another option, 4uKey iOS (paid) is suggested as an alternative.

How data is organized

Each profile acts like a small database secured by its own master password — a password you must remember. Inside a profile, entries are arranged in a familiar tree-style view similar to Windows Explorer. There’s no hard cap on the number of saved records.

Key fields stored with each entry include:

URL to the website
Username
Password
Notes or description
Attached files

From an entry you can launch the saved web address directly in your browser.

Security features

When you close a profile its contents are encrypted, so they remain inaccessible until you open the profile again with the master password. Additional protective measures include a virtual on-screen keyboard to reduce the risk of password capture by keyloggers.

Filling logins and browser support

Steganos offers a couple of ways to populate login forms:

Drag-and-drop of credentials from the application into a site’s login fields.
Right-click to access passwords directly from a password field, but this is limited to Internet Explorer.

Note: Firefox users cannot use the automatic fill; they must use drag-and-drop instead.
