Geekzone Reviews Viskeeper
Posted by marlof in "ARTICLE" @ 03:24 AM
Viskeeper is an application where you can store your passwords and other confidential information. One of the special features of this application is the visual key required to access you information. You get to define the sequence of specific tapping points on a picture, and only if you follow those you get access to your information. Mauricio Freitas at Geekzone has taken a closer look:
"The program is very easy to use, and it seems to implement good security features. It keep things to the basic, and keep them smart. Synchronisation is at file level only on the Pocket PC, so make sure to not modify the file format or contents in both Pocket PC and Windows platforms in between synchronisations, because this will cause a file synchronisation problem and you'll have to decide which version to keep. VisKeeper is fast and certainly does not require much skills to dominate completely and use it at full potential. Having the program available on Palm OS and Pocket PC makes it easy to migrate from one platform to the other, if the user requires this - and believe me this kind of feature is important. Definetly VisKeeper is a program to evaluate if you're looking for password and information keeping on your mobile device."
