Use Aloaha to store your passwords,
credit card numbers secure

In an ideal world no passwords would exist and everybody would simply logon to computer and websites via Digital Certificates or Finger Printers. But this ideal world is still far away so I am sure I am not alone with my problems. As an IT Professional I need to know a large amount of different usernames and passords for all the sites I am responsible for. To use everywhere the same password would be a huge security risk. But I found the solution! I started to write them down! Not on a piece of paper as you might think. No, I am using e-paper - better known as PDF. PDF Documents have a great digital rights management integrated and clients are available on all platforms! I will explain a bit more detailed the steps how to use PDF as a password store.

• Open Notepad and press a couple of times space.
• Print this document to an Aloaha monitored printer to create a blank PDF.
• Open that PDF with the Aloaha PDF Editor.
• Create one large Text form - covering the complete page
• Set both PDF Permission passwords to one password of your choice and enable 128 Bit encryption.
• Double click on the Form created and enter your secrect usernames and passwords.
• Save the document. Unlike Adobe Reader the Aloaha Editor will save also the form content.

Now you created a PDF Document which contains all your secrets. You could even publish that document somewhere on a webserver to have your information available everywhere. Whenever you need to add some more information just open it in the Aloaha Editor and edit the Form.

As an example I will publish below a sample document. The password is aloaha.
