14 Description: locally serve clients sensitive data
15 Password Manager Daemon is a server that provides a way for applications to
16 securely store data in a centralized location. The data is stored in an
17 AES256 encrypted XML file and clients connect to manipulate the data. Some
18 of the features include:
20 * Multi-threaded. More than one client may access the data at the same
22 * A key cache so clients won't need to enter a key each time a file is
23 opened or saved. The cache is also protected with a mutex to prevent
25 * Key retrieval via pinentry(1).
26 * Configuration file which supports file specific settings including
27 encryption iterations, cache expiration and encryption key or key file.
28 * Compressed data file support.
29 * Logging to file and/or syslog.
30 * Secure memory usage. PWMD will zero out memory before freeing it and
31 also has the option to lock the entire process in RAM to avoid swapping
32 the data to virtual memory.
