Product

To create a free Intuitive Password account, users supply an email address, a master password, and a self-populated security question and answer. In the program's "Logins category", users can save website, database, and server logins. In the "Accounts category", users can store their credentials for email accounts, instant messaging accounts, and wireless routers. In the "Wallets" category, users can store their credit card information. In the "Licenses" category, users can store credentials for their software and hunting license. In the "Identifications" category, users can store IDs like library cards. Intuitive Password lets clients use two kinds of two-factor authentication. The first factor is a master password. The second factor is either an authentication code sent through text message to a user's cellphone or Google Authenticator. It has configurable options to email users for every log in or to block different countries from logging in. Very confidential information can be protected by a second master password. Intuitive Password permits users to safely share authentication details with others who are using it. For logging in to public computers, users can generate a single-use password for authentication.
