What is it?
The Master Password is the "Root Key" of your vault. When you use PKey, your data is not protected by a simple password.
Your Master Password is run through a memory-hard algorithm (Argon2id) and split via HKDF to generate a military-grade Encryption Key. This means even if someone hacks our servers, they will only see unreadable, mathematically protected data.
Zero-Knowledge Architecture
Simply put: We do not know your password.
- Your password is never sent to our servers.
- Encryption and decryption happen entirely in your browser.
- Even PKey employees cannot access your data.
Why No "Forgot Password"?
Most websites store your password, which allows them to reset it. We prioritize privacy. A "Forgot Password" option would mean we have access to your key, and we intentionally avoid that so only you control your data.
No Recovery Option
If you forget your Master Password, your vault will be permanently locked. Even we cannot recover it. Store it safely, preferably offline.
Making it Unbreakable
Length Matters
Use at least 16-20 characters for maximum security and resistance against brute-force attacks.(eg. G7@kL9!xP2#vQ8zR)
Mix it Up
Use a combination of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols to increase complexity.(eg. P@s5W0rd#X9!)
Avoid Patterns
Avoid predictable information like names, birthdays, or common keyboard patterns.(eg. 123456, qwerty, john2005)
Use Passphrases
Use random words to create a passphrase - stronger, more secure, and easier to remember than traditional passwords.(eg. BlueTiger!Runs@Midnight)
