About PwdGuard
PwdGuard is a free, ad-supported password manager. It offers AES256 encryption and cross-platform compatibility for web browsers, Windows, Android, and Apple devices. The service is based in the USA and stores data on US-based VPS servers.
PwdGuard is a password management tool that offers its full-featured version for free, subsidized by advertising. It positions itself as a secure solution, highlighting its use of military-grade AES256 encryption, with each password item having its own encryption key. The product is browser-based and functions as a Progressive Web App (PWA), ensuring compatibility across Windows, Android, and Apple devices without needing a native installation. Key features include the ability to import and export data, share information via QR codes, and manage unlimited accounts. The vendor, a US-based company, states that data is stored on VPS servers in the USA. While the product is free, the official website is heavily injected with spam links to gambling and casino sites, which raises significant concerns about the site's integrity and security practices.
