dppass

dppass is a command-line utility and library designed to facilitate the secure management and retrieval of sensitive credentials. It enables users to store and access passwords, API keys, and other confidential information in an encrypted format. The primary function of dppass is to abstract away the complexities of cryptographic operations, allowing developers to integrate secure credential handling into their applications with ease.

The tool utilizes established encryption algorithms to protect stored data, ensuring that sensitive information remains inaccessible to unauthorized parties. Access to these stored credentials is typically protected by a master password or a similar authentication mechanism, which is required to decrypt the data upon retrieval. dppass aims to reduce the risk of credential exposure through insecure storage methods such as plain text files or version control systems.

In addition to its command-line interface, dppass often provides an API that allows programmatic access to its features. This integration capability makes it suitable for a range of use cases, including automated deployments, secure configuration management, and password generation. The project emphasizes user-friendliness and robust security practices.
