EncryptionAES-256-CBC, PBKDF2-SHA256
Show details

The vault is encrypted client-side with AES-256 in CBC mode. The key is derived from the master password with PBKDF2-SHA256 at a default 600,000 iterations for new accounts (older accounts kept far lower counts for years); one extra PBKDF2 round produces the login hash, and further rounds are applied server-side. Passwords, usernames and notes are encrypted, but item URLs and account metadata are stored unencrypted.

AES-256, PBKDF2-SHA256 1M
Show details

The vault is encrypted client-side with AES-256 using a key derived from the Master Password via PBKDF2 with SHA-256 and a random 32-byte salt, at 1,000,000 iterations by default — the same order of magnitude as the highest iteration counts in this category, though PBKDF2 remains a non-memory-hard KDF unlike Argon2. Only a one-way, server-side password derived from the Master Password is ever sent to RoboForm's servers; all encryption and decryption happens locally.
