Penetration test and source-code audit of the Bitwarden core application

None on record
Source codeFully open sourceClosed source
EncryptionAES-256-CBC, PBKDF2
Show details

600,000 PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 iterations by default on the client, plus more server-side (700,000 total for the master password hash); Argon2id is available as an alternative KDF. Item names, notes, URIs, custom field names, TOTP secrets and card/identity data are all encrypted client-side. Vault metadata — which account an item belongs to, the number of items — is not.

AES-256, PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA512 320K
Show details

The vault is a SQLite database encrypted via SQLCipher (AES-256-CBC). The Vault Key is derived from the Master Password — and, optionally, a keyfile — using PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA512 at 320,000 iterations, with a unique random salt per database.
