Abstract
This paper seeks to describe the development procedure and justification for my project's password manager called MemPass. MemPass was developed to protect a user’s credentials by offering the opportunity for a user to generate their password that would be unique to them and be able to store them locally to their machine and account. It aims to counter real life problems that would compromise a user’s credentials such as database breaches, phishing attacks, company leaks as well as being a convenient way of helping the person remember their details by themselves. I decided to create this application due to the frustration we all experience when having too many passwords for certain sites and the inability for managers to create an actual memorable password that a user can recall without the reliance of a manager. Having this in mind I got an idea of making a “memorable” password generator and manager that would create passwords from user’s input that specifically they could relate to the keywords to be used in the generation. In the report, I describe in depth the application’s development, functions, testing and the results of the intended purpose of the application.
