Password Safe

You use Password Safe to store all your account data in a single place that is secured by a master password.

Tip

You can open a Password Safe file from the iOS Home Screen. Touch and hold the Intercept X app and select the Open Password Safe file quick action.

You have the following options:

  • Create a new Password Safe file.
  • Import an existing KeePass KDBX file. When you edit password entries, only the local copy is changed.
  • Open an existing KeePass KDBX file. When you edit password entries, the original file is changed.

You can secure the Password Safe file with a master password, a key file, or both. The key file must be present on your device when you open the Password Safe file. You can either use an existing KeePass key file or let Sophos Intercept X for Mobile create one.

We recommend that you use both a master password and a key file. Doing so provides two-factor protection with something you must know (the password) and something you must have (the key file).
