First-level security certification of KeePassXC 2.7.9 on Windows — full source-code review, penetration testing of every security function, and cryptographic and random-number-generator analysis

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.

The database is encrypted with AES-256 by default (Twofish and ChaCha20 are also selectable) in the KDBX 4 format, with an HMAC-SHA-256 integrity check that detects tampering. The master key is derived with Argon2d by default — a memory-hard function that resists GPU and ASIC cracking — with the older AES-KDF still available. The composite master key can combine a password, a key file, and a YubiKey or OnlyKey challenge-response secret.

Volunteer, community-run open-source project under the keepassxreboot organization on GitHub — no company and no venture funding behind it. Development is paid for by donations. Forked from KeePassX in 2016; the KeePass lineage goes back to 2003.
