About Bitwarden
Bitwarden is the easiest and safest way to store all of your logins and
passwords while conveniently keeping them synced between all of your
devices.
Password theft is a serious problem. The websites and apps that you use
are under attack every day. Security breaches occur and your passwords
are stolen. When you reuse the same passwords across apps and websites
hackers can easily access your email, bank, and other important
accounts.
Security experts recommend that you use a different, randomly generated
password for every account that you create. But how do you manage all
those passwords? Bitwarden makes it easy for you to create, store, and
access your passwords.
Bitwarden stores all of your logins in an encrypted vault that syncs
across all of your devices. Since it's fully encrypted before it ever
leaves your device, only you have access to your data. Not even the
team at Bitwarden can read your data, even if we wanted to. Your data
is sealed with AES-256 bit encryption, salted hashing, and PBKDF2
SHA-256.
Bitwarden is 100% open source software. The source code for Bitwarden
is hosted on GitHub and everyone is free to review, audit, and
