Skeleton Key: A Secure Password Generator for Chrome
Skeleton Key is a secure password generator designed for the Chrome platform. Developed by Robert Sesek, this free add-on falls under the category of browsers and specifically belongs to the subcategory of add-ons and tools.
The main purpose of Skeleton Key is to provide an alternative way to manage passwords. Instead of relying on multiple databases for different websites, Skeleton Key simplifies the process by using a single master password combined with a site key and username. These three pieces of data are then repeatedly hashed using the PBKDF2 algorithm, ensuring a high level of security.
One notable feature of Skeleton Key is its ability to suggest a site key based on the current tab's URL. This feature, introduced in version 2, helps users generate unique and site-specific keys effortlessly.
In the latest version, v3, Skeleton Key has fixed bugs related to site key suggestions, further enhancing the user experience and reliability of the add-on.
With its focus on security and simplicity, Skeleton Key is a valuable tool for Chrome users looking to enhance their password management practices.
