Open the following link in Vivaldi: vivaldi://chrome/extensions In the upper right corner, check developer mode.

#INSTALL LASTPASS ON OTHER DEVICE INSTALL#

Run: rm -r _metadata LastPass is now ready to install in Vivaldi. mkdir ~/Downloads/lastpass mv lastpass.zip lastpass/lastpass.zip unzip lastpass.zip cd lastpass Once you've run that, your LastPass folder will be filled with a bunch of files, you only need to delete one.

#INSTALL LASTPASS ON OTHER DEVICE SERIES#

Then, I recommend running this series of commands to avoid messing up your downloads folder. Download the CRX, and rename it something like lastpass.zip. Right click on the header, and select 'Get CRX of this extension'. Then, search in the extensions store, LastPass, and click on it. Start by getting Google Chrome and installing the Give Me CRX plugin found at the chrome extensions store.

This may work on OS X or Windows, but definitely works on Linux.

If we want to be pedantic, I can see the value of taking things locally or behind private or limited networks, but it better be resilient enough to be published publicly.īut I think we (commentators) are now nit picking.With some effort today, I managed to get LastPass working with Vivaldi, and I thought I'd share how to get it set up for all of you. Think the lead SELinux guy who used to publish his personal workstation IP address and dare the world to break in. Using dedicated devices, that have no network ports, etc (airgapped), etc, one can get very “serious” but the best systems, the most serious systems, can be confidently accessed openly. But if there is an internet access to that database, therefore it is not considered secure unless it is resilient enough as if it were publicly accessible. Cost benefit? If encrypted, even if the NSA has years to pound on it, if it is solid crypto (and it better well damn be - and it has to be open source, of course) then let them pound away.Īs for a local database… sure… security through obscurity, sorta. You can use it across platforms, devices. But it’s still not as well protected as a database kept locally only. Please include cost/benefit ratio, where the cost includes uninvited strangers having access to your - The KeePass database is well encrypted, and would be resistant to attack while in transit over the internet, or while sitting there spinning away forever on a dropbox server somewhere. It helps if the ideas are from somebody with relevant experience, and if they are logically and intelligently presented, with reasons for and against, such as may be found in the excellent writings of Martin Brinkmann on - More clearly? Perhaps by naming one or two of your “MANY benefits”.

I’m happy with what I do, though I am always ready to read or listen to ideas from others. Part of the problem here is that each person has his own risk tolerance, and his own preferred method of organizing his home or office.

Works for me anyhow, though if you need to log in someplace ten times a day instead of once or twice a month, the password manager might be handy. Then I make a handwritten copy and type in the generated password manually when needed. And if that database only had the less important passwords, such as for social club or magazine subscription logins, decrypting it would not be all that rewarding.įor serious accounts, for example financial institutions, I use KeePass or similar to generate a tough password, but not to save it. But it’s still not as well protected as a database kept locally only.Ī local database, let’s say kept on a thumb drive which is only plugged in when needed, would be physically hard to find, much less to decrypt. More clearly? Perhaps by naming one or two of your “MANY benefits”.
