Mitto Password Manager

Mitto is a free online password management site[1] that works on any standards-compliant web browser such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer. For website passwords, Mitto can automatically log users in through an online interface, through a special bookmarklet, or through one of its available browser extensions (Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer). The service has been designed to work with many of the most popular websites, but can be used to log into any website.[2] Unlike other traditional password management software, Mitto is software as a service (SaaS) and is web-based, so there is nothing to download or install in order to use the service.

Encryption, security

Mitto uses 128-bit SSL certificates to encrypt all traffic between the browser and their servers, and passwords are encrypted using 1024-bit RSA or 256-bit AES encryption algorithms.[4]

Mitto vs OpenID

Mitto is a password manager and is different from OpenID, which is a standard for authenticating users. For a user to be able to use OpenID to log into a website, that website must implement OpenID. Companies such as Clickpass offer the ability to log into various sites that support OpenID, but not others. Mitto can be used to log into any website whether or not it supports OpenID. Similar to OpenID, Facebook Connect is a proprietary standard that can be used to authenticate users and integrates their Facebook profiles. However it can only be used on a site if that site implements Facebook Connect.

gollark: You don't know that. We can't really test this. Even people who support utilitarian philosophy abstractly might not want to pull the lever in a real visceral trolley problem.
gollark: Almost certainly mostly environment, yes.
gollark: It's easy to say that if you are just vaguely considering that, running it through the relatively unhurried processes of philosophizing™, that sort of thing. But probably less so if it's actually being turned over to emotion and such, because broadly speaking people reaaaallly don't want to die.
gollark: Am I better at resisting peer pressure than other people: well, I'd *like* to think so, but so would probably everyone else ever.
gollark: Anyway, I have, I think, reasonably strong "no genocide" ethics. But I don't know if, in a situation where everyone seemed implicitly/explicitly okay with helping with genocides, and where I feared that I would be punished if I either didn't help in some way or didn't appear supportive of helping, I would actually stick to this, since I don't think I've ever been in an environment with those sorts of pressures.
