Kaspersky Password Manager stores and protects all your personal data (e.g. passwords, user names, Internet pager
accounts, contacts, phone numbers, etc.). Kaspersky Password Manager sticks passwords and accounts to Microsoft
Windows applications and web pages for which they are used. All information is stored in encrypted form in the
Password Database, access to which is protected by a Master Password. Personal data is easily accessible if the
Password Database is unlocked. After launching a web page or application, Kaspersky Password Manager automatically
enters the password, user name and other personal data. Thus, you need not remember all the passwords, you only
need to remember one password.

Kaspersky Password Manager loads by default at system startup. This component is built in into the application which
allows personal data to be managed directly from the application window.

Kaspersky Password Manager monitors the actions of applications with passwords and prevents the interception and
theft of personal data. This component checks applications that use passwords or request them from other applications,
before asking you to allow or forbid a suspicious action.

Additionally, Kaspersky Password Manager can:

 save and use your passwords (see page 29);

 find accounts, passwords, user names and other personal information in the Password Database (see page 30);

 generate strong passwords (see page 48) when registering new accounts;

 save all passwords on removable device (see page );49

 restore Password Database from backup copy (see page 32);

 protect passwords from unauthorized access (see page 21).

INTERFACE

In this chapter, we shall take a closer look at the main principles of working with Kaspersky Password Manager.

NOTIFICATION AREA ICON

Immediately after starting Kaspersky Password Manager, its icon will appear in the Microsoft Windows taskbar
notification area.

Depending on the situation, the Kaspersky Password Manager icon will take the following form:

 active (green) – Kaspersky Password Manager is unlocked, access to your personal data is allowed;

 inactive (red) – Kaspersky Password Manager is locked, your personal data is inaccessible.

The following interface items are accessible by clicking the icon:

 context menu (see page 16);

 Kaspersky Password Manager pointer.

CONTEXT MENU OF KASPERSKY PASSWORD MANAGER

The Kaspersky Password Manager context menu provides access to the main tasks and contains the following items:

 Lock / Unlock – allowing or forbidding of access to your personal data.

 Accounts – quick access to the most frequently used accounts. The number of accounts in the Password

Database is specified in brackets. The list of frequently used accounts is created automatically. The list is
available if it is configured to be displayed in the context menu (see page 36). When the application is first
launched, the list will not be available since no record will have been used.
