KeePassX

KeePassX is an open-source password management application for Linux. It is a Linux port of the Windows application KeePass Password Safe. The program is designed to help users organize and manage passwords in a password safe.

KeePassX stores password information in a highly encrypted database. Access to that database is controlled by one master key. This arrangement gives users a central place to keep password data while requiring the master key to open it.

The software is intended for Linux users who need a security-category tool for managing passwords. Its main purpose is to make password storage easier to handle without separating individual passwords from the protected database that contains them. As open-source software, KeePassX is distributed under an open-source license rather than as a closed, proprietary application.

MirrorNest lists KeePassX for the Linux platform under the security category. MirrorNest links directly to the official release instead of storing or mirroring a separate copy. This distribution approach directs users to the source release while keeping the catalog entry focused on identifying the software and its platform.
