PasswordVault v5.1
Lava Software is now shipping PasswordVault v5.1, a simple and practical enterprise-level password manager for Windows, Mac OS X (Universal Binary), Mac OS Classic and Linux(i86). This new version offers powerful import functions which allow password data to be imported efficiently from most other password managers, and enhancements that simplify the setting up and testing of auto-import and auto-export of password data. Import filters have been added for some specific password managers, and the custom import filter has been significantly enhanced, making it possible to import password data from most other password managers. It also allows groups of users within organizations to migrate to the PasswordVault cross-platform enterprise-level password management solution, and subsequently securely and automatically share and synchronize password data.
Standard features in PasswordVault include auto-filling of Web forms (two-click logins), very strong 896-bit encryption, a unique Master Password Recovery System (MPRS), random password generator, auto-lock timer (with clipboard clear), powerful import/export functions, masked passwords, user-defined service categories, editable notes, selectable skins, detailed reports after portable/desktop sync, and support for use in large organizations.
The portable version (bundled free with the desktop version) runs directly off USB flash drives and iPods, providing users with secure access to their data when they're on the road, as well as the convenience of auto-synchronization when they return to their desktop computer.
The new Professional Edition offers additional features for password management and control within organizations, including secure auto-distribution (via shared network drives on LANs or via Web server URLs), secure multi-user password synchronization, and logging of auto-exports and auto-import service changes. It provides a simple but powerful cross-platform enterprise-level password management solution for companies, schools, universities and other organizations.
For a limited time, small businesses and home users can purchase the five-user pack of PasswordVault Pro for $40 (regularly $50). Other pack sizes are also available for larger businesses and organizations. The free Lite Edition of PasswordVault v5.1 includes a 30 day trial of auto-distribution and supports up to 15 services, whilst the Standard and Professional Editions support any number of services. Individual licenses of the Standard Edition are priced at $15 (offers access to the current version of the software for all platforms, as well as free upgrades forever).
