thowa Posted October 17, 2022 Report Posted October 17, 2022 Hi, I'm using Enpass on iPhone and Windows 10. Both are synced via NextCloud. To increase the security I would like to add a key-file. Is it possible at all, to add a key file to an existing tresor? If not, how can I copy all my data to a new tresor that is based on a key-file? Thanks, Thorsten
Abhishek Dewan Posted October 18, 2022 Report Posted October 18, 2022 Hi @thowa For an additional layer of security when unlocking Enpass, you can create a Keyfile on your computer, which can then be added to your mobile devices by scanning a QR code that will appear on your computer screen. Please refer to this link on how to do so.
thowa Posted October 21, 2022 Author Report Posted October 21, 2022 Hi Abhishek, My question is, how can I move the existing passwords from a vault that is not protected by a key file to a new vault, that is protected by a keyfile. Or, can I increase the security be enhancing my existing vault (which is currently not protected by keyfile) with a keyfile afterwards? Thanks, Thorsten
Abhishek Dewan Posted October 27, 2022 Report Posted October 27, 2022 Hi @thowa I completely understand your point. Adding a Keyfile to an already existing vault - Your computer can create a Keyfile that can be added to your mobile device with the help of a QR code that appears on your screen. Kindly refer to the steps in this link to add Keyfile to an already existing Vault. Moving Items from a vault without a keyfile to a vault secured with a keyfile - This can be achieved by exporting your vault in .json format (Enpass Desktop app Menu (Hamburger Icon) -> File -> Export) which isn't protected by a keyfile and then importing the data (Enpass Desktop app Menu (Hamburger Icon) -> File -> Import) in the vault which is protected by the keyfile.
