Comments on: PerlMonks Getting Hacked and My Solution

I’m also disappointed with PerlMonks, though just looking at that ugly old site should be enough to throw up a red flag. Not that I’m hating — it’s a great resource for the Perl community. But I suspect the backend code hasn’t changed much in the last decade or so.

Might I suggest http://supergenpass.com/ as another alternative? It’s a sound idea, even if the implementation is somewhat lacking. I’m not too impressed with the use of MD5, or the insecure implementation as a hack on the current page DOM. I load the “Mobile” version in a Firefox sidebar to circumvent that.

also pwsafe ( password safe ) is nice, instead of just having a quote from bruce schneier on the front page like keepass, it’s originally from bruce schneier.

http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net/relatedprojects.shtml

it even has a perl interface to the database so you can roll your own access.
