Local password safe. Simple Python wrapper for Windows Credentials API
Project description
cred
The module relies on Windows Credentials for storing the passwords.
It's just a cli tool for managing these credentials.
Generates a 20-character length random string (with upper, lower, punctuation and digits)
and saves for the given <target>
.
Similar to cmdkey.exe but actually returns password.
Usage
usage: cred {{-r | -w} <target>}
> cred -r existing_credential
The password was written on the clipboard.
> cred -r non_existing_credential
Not found.
> cred -w any_string # existing will be overwritten
Credential written.
Installation
> git clone https://github.com/HenriquedoVal/cred.git
> cd cred
> pip install .
Future
Maybe more layers of security would be good, like:
- Cleaning the clipboard after some time
- Request passphrase to get access (would request admin rights)
- Operates as another special user
