Extension summary

TAKE PRIVACY INTO YOUR OWN HANDS

Easy, end-to-end secure encryption for email and other web-based communication systems, plus real-time chat, that does not rely on servers and is therefore immune to hacking or government intervention. Very similar to PassLok for Email, also in this store, except that it supports any Email Service, including Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook online, and many more.

PassLok Universal is also a full-fledged password manager which, unlike most other managers out there, does NOT involve a server, yet it syncs between computers. Its password management engine is that of SynthPass, also in this store.

And if you're not exchanging messages or filling passwords, clicking the PassLok Universal icon will allow you to save secure notes on any website, or to load it into a special "Incognito" page that loads within the normal Chrome window. This function, also available via the right-click menu, is borrowed from Page Cage, also in this store.

--PassLok Universal is incredibly easy to use--

To encrypt a message or file, just click the PassLok icon when the email service's Compose or Reply window is visible. A popup will take your private message and encrypt it with the click of a button. Then you can send it out like any other message, or as an attachment.

To decrypt it, display the encrypted message and click the PassLok icon. A popup will show the decrypted message or file immediately, if there is one.

PassLok asks you for your Password only once. It can be anything you want, so you can actually remember it. PassLok will evaluate its strength and compensate for its weakness by lengthening the computations. It won't be stored or sent anywhere, and PassLok will forget it after five minutes of inactivity.
