Sensitive file watcher
Watches your Downloads folder in the background and catches .p8, .pem, certificates or .env files before they leak. One click encrypts them into your vault and shreds the original.
The native secrets and password manager with real-time download leak protection, instant biometrics, and self-destructing links.
Authsidian also protects what isn’t a password: API keys, certificates and the files that pile up in your Downloads folder.
Watches your Downloads folder in the background and catches .p8, .pem, certificates or .env files before they leak. One click encrypts them into your vault and shreds the original.
Your keys never leave your device’s RAM. The server stores encrypted blobs it can’t read: blind storage.
Share a secret through an end-to-end encrypted, password-protected link that self-destructs after the first download.
Fills Stripe, Shopify, MercadoPago and PayPal checkouts. Validates with the Luhn algorithm and never stores your CVV, in line with PCI-DSS.
Lives in the system tray on Windows and macOS and unlocks instantly with Windows Hello or Face ID.
Try the generator: it works just like in the app, using your browser’s cryptographic randomness. Nothing you generate leaves this page.
GPU- and ASIC-resistant key derivation that makes brute-forcing painfully expensive.
Authenticated encryption: any tampering with the ciphertext is detected and rejected.
Decryption happens on your device. Lock the vault and the keys are wiped from memory.
The cloud only holds opaque blobs. Neither we nor anyone who breaches it can see your data.
Very strong · 123 bits of entropy
Time to crack at a trillion guesses per second: over a trillion years
Other managers are great at storing passwords. Authsidian also guards the secrets that aren’t.
