Spectre: A password manager that doesn’t store passwords
Password managers are not without security flaws, as seen in a recent high-profile breach. The database storing all the user's passwords is a very attractive target for hackers. Spectre is a new password manager that aims to solve this problem by using a unique password generation and management app...
It sounds like a cool concept, but I can't see anyone migrating to this service since there is no logical way to import your current passwords.
Am I missing something?
You're viewing a single thread.
There are some things I'm missing.
What if I need or want a certain passwod length? Because a site only allows X or I want to have Y amount of signs.
What about the control over special characters in the password or not. Sometimes I need to generate passwords without any special character.
Where is the 2FA aspect? Sure there is no datavse with my passwords. But at least my DB is secured with username + password + 2FA Code
I still need to trust a website or app where I put my credentials in. Or is it 100% offline? Like I am with KeePass and/or selfhosted Bitwarden at home.
How do I change passwords without the need of keeping track of website name changes?
And just as a note, things like Bitwarden or KeePass are much more than only a password generator.
Extra note: we are heading towards a passwordless future with passkey etc. anyway.
All good points and they are seemingly missing indeed.
