PasswordVault v5.2 Adds New Button Graphic Styles And Enhanced Web Form Auto-Fill
ADELAIDE, AUSTRALIA -- December 12, 2006 -- Lava Software is now shipping PasswordVault v5.2, a simple and practical enterprise-level password manager for Windows, MacOS X (Universal Binary), MacOS Classic and Linux(i86). This new version offers a selection of button graphic styles including ‘Aqua’, ‘Sketch’ and ‘Win32’, increased web form auto-fill speed, improved ‘Quick Start’ information, and additional MacOS X detail in the user manual. It is a free upgrade for all users.
Users can now select from three different button graphic styles: ‘Aqua’ complements the liquid MacOS X user interface design, whilst 'Win32' matches the colorful interface of Windows XP. ‘Sketch’ provides a refreshing alternative art deco style for users who want something different. All button graphic styles are available on all platform versions. There are also eleven different skins built into PasswordVault, including 'Brushed Platinum', 'Water', 'Golden Bee Hive' and 'Wax Drops'. Many combinations of button graphic styles and skins are now possible, allowing users to select the user interface look they like.
Standard features in PasswordVault include auto-filling of Web forms (two-click logins), very strong 896-bit encryption, a unique Master Password Recovery System (MPRS), random password generator, auto-lock timer (with clipboard clear), very powerful import and export functions (for easy backup and transfer), masked passwords, user defined service categories, editable notes, selectable skins, detailed reports after portable/desktop sync, and enhanced support for use in large organizations (The University of Illinois purchased site licenses of PasswordVault for their campuses at Urbana-Champaign, Chicago and Springfield in 2004, renewing their license in 2005 and again in 2006). The portable version (bundled free with the desktop version) runs directly off USB flash drives and iPods, providing users with secure access to their data when they're on the road, as well as the convenience of auto-synchronization when they return to their desktop computer.
The new Professional Edition offers additional features for password management and control within organizations, including secure auto-distribution (via shared network drives on LANs or via Web server URLs), secure multi-user password synchronization, and logging of auto-exports and auto-import service changes. It provides a simple but powerful cross-platform enterprise-level password management solution for companies, schools, universities and other organizations. The auto-distribution system is very flexible. For example, it can ensure a group of normal users always have the latest passwords managed by a privileged user, it can keep passwords in selected categories synchronized between a group of users, or it can synchronize privileged users and propagate changes to normal users.
For a limited time, small businesses and home users can purchase the 5 user pack of PasswordVault Pro for USD39.00 (normally USD49.00). Other pack sizes are also available for larger businesses and organizations, such as the 20 user pack for USD99.00, the 50 user pack for USD199.00, and the 100 user pack for USD299.00. A site license for an unlimited number of users is USD499.00. Elementary and high schools can currently purchase a site license for only USD349.00, which covers all staff and students at the school for the use of PasswordVault Pro on all computers at school and at home (including laptops) and all portable media (USB drives, iPods, etc). Universities and colleges can currently purchase a custom build site license with extended student licensing, prelicensing (users do not need to enter a runtime key during installation) and an optional custom backdrop for USD990.00.
The free Lite Edition of PasswordVault v5.2 (available for immediate download from http://www.lavasoftware.com) includes a 30 day trial of auto-distribution and supports up to 15 services, whilst the Standard and Professional Editions support any number of services.
