KeeWeb as a way to store passwords and logins in 2023

​What is KeeWeb?

KeeWeb is a cross-platform password manager that you can use on any platform and online. Supports themes, layouts, data synchronization, etc. 

Why do I need KeeWeb? 

Nowadays we use the Internet 24/7 and you can create an account on each site. To increase the level of security, you will need to set a unique password for each account, but how to remember dozens if not hundreds of passwords? You will need a place where you can store them and access any of the passwords at the right time. This is exactly what this password manager is for. 

Of course, you can use the same password everywhere, for example, your date of birth, but in this case, attackers can easily damage your data on the Internet or even hack into a bank account. To avoid these unpleasant situations, you should use different passwords, and sometimes even encryption, as we discussed earlier in our security articles.  

In turn, the KeeWeb manager will allow you to store your passwords using the Linux system both online and offline. Read more a little below. 

Are there any other password managers? 

Of course, there are and there are quite a lot of them, but KeeWeb is popular with many system administrators and people who are worried about their security. But if you want to read about other password managers, we recommend that you look at KeePass. 

What are the advantages? 

One of the main advantages in this manager is the ability to use it both online and offline. Namely, you can place it on your PC regardless of the operating system, and also place KeeWeb on the server for access to the web interface. For example, you can rent a VPS, choose the most convenient tariff plan for you and place this password manager there. And in the future, if you need a password, then you can connect from anywhere in the world and get a password for your account.  

There are other advantages in this manager for example: 

  • Cloud synchronization 
  • Plugin support 
  • Ability to add tags to records 
  • Built-in password generator 
  • Connecting to external cloud services (Google Drive, OneBox, etc.) 
  • Automatic blocking of the program 

And much more. 

Plugins 

The plugins that KeeWeb uses are usually language packs that you plug in for more convenience. Since the interface is initially English, you may need to change the language, and this is done from the settings section, but if your language is not there, check whether it is present in the plugins section.  

System requirements 

This software is not demanding, which is why it will work even on a very weak system. And thanks to the web version, you can connect to it from any browser at any time.  

Installation method 

In order not to describe it in writing, we shot a video that shows how to install KeeWeb on your VPS, as well as how to create a password and a user. We will use the web version in the video to view it go to our YouTube channel
 

 

Conclusion 

KeeWeb is a good solution for users who are worried about their security and value their data. Even an inexperienced user can install it, and in order to learn how to work with it, you will need very little time. The interface is very clear, and even a new user will be able to understand almost immediately what needs to be done to create a password, password database, etc. 

And if you want to host KeeWeb on a VPS for permanent access to the web interface, then I advise you to familiarize yourself with our prices.
