Adelaide, South Australia (PRWEB) November 15, 2006 -- PasswordVault(TM) is a simple and secure password manager which stores website usernames and passwords, Internet banking information and software registration details for quick and easy access. To celebrate the release of PasswordVault Pro, which adds powerful new features for groups of users, Lava Software is offering special introductory pricing on site licenses for schools, colleges and universities, and special multi-user packs for companies and other organizations. For example, elementary and high schools can now purchase a site license for only USD349.00, which covers all staff and students at the school for the use of PasswordVault Pro (desktop and portable versions) on all computers at school and at home (including laptops) and all portable media (USB drives, iPods, etc). This price includes all future program upgrades free of charge via download. Windows, MacOS X, MacOS Classic and Linux(i86) versions of PasswordVault Pro are supplied, providing a seamless password management solution for schools using a mix of different computer types.

Universities and colleges can purchase a custom build site license with extended student licensing, prelicensing (users do not need to enter a runtime key during installation) and an optional custom backdrop for USD990.00, which covers all staff and students at the university or college for the use of PasswordVault Pro (desktop and portable versions) on all computers on campus and at home (including laptops) and all portable media (USB drives, iPods, etc). The custom backdrop option allows universities and colleges to graphically integrate PasswordVault Pro with their own university or college style or colors.

For a limited time, small businesses and home users can purchase the 5 user pack of PasswordVault Pro for USD39.00 (normally USD49.00). Other pack sizes are also available for larger businesses and organizations, such as the 20 user pack for USD99.00, the 50 user pack for USD199.00, and the 100 user pack for USD299.00. A site license for an unlimited number of users is USD499.00.

PasswordVault Pro includes powerful features for password management and control within organizations, such as auto-distribution, a very streamlined and secure way to automatically distribute passwords (and other service information) between large groups of users. Typically, privileged users within an organization would manage particular service categories, and set up auto-export of those categories to a 'PasswordVault Distributable' (PVD) file on a shared network drive, which authorized users could subsequently auto-import. Alternatively, PVD files can be uploaded to a Web server for auto-import by remote users over the Internet. PVD files offer additional security via an extra layer of strong 128-bit AES encryption on top of the normal 896-bit encryption (2 x 448-bit Blowfish) used by PasswordVault.

Standard features in PasswordVault include auto-filling of Web forms, very strong 896-bit encryption, a unique Master Password Recovery System (if you forget your master password, you can answer some questions previously entered to recover), random password generator, auto-lock timer (with clipboard clear), very powerful import and export functions, masked passwords, user defined service categories, detailed reports after portable/desktop synchronization, first letter filtering on service names, and enhanced support for use in large organizations. The portable version runs directly off USB flash drives, providing users with secure access to their website usernames and passwords, Internet banking and other data when they're on the road, as well as the convenience of auto-synchronization when they return to their desktop computer.

Some key reference customers have been using PasswordVault for some time: The University of Illinois purchased custom build site licenses of PasswordVault for their campuses at Urbana-Champaign, Chicago and Springfield in 2004, renewing their license in 2005 and again in 2006. The Regional Educational Media Center #1, located in Michigan State, is an organization whose role is to provide technology and instructional materials support to local school districts and they purchased an unlimited site license in July 2005 (and have received free software updates since).

The free Lite Edition of PasswordVault v5.0 (available for immediate download from http://www.lavasoftware.com) includes a 30 day trial of auto-distribution and supports up to 15 services, whilst the Standard and Professional Editions support any number of services. Individual licenses of the Standard Edition are priced at USD14.95, and purchasers get download access to the current version of the software for all platforms (both desktop and portable USB flash drive versions), as well as free upgrades forever. The Professional Edition, the only edition to include unlimited auto-distribution, is available in multi-user packs starting from USD39.00. OEM pricing, customization and rebranding options are available on request. VAR, ISP and ISV enquiries welcomed.
