-=} Passta {=- The simple password safe Passta is a simple password safe intended for usage in scripts. e.g.: usage in .msmtprc passwordeval passta get smtps/me@example.com GPG[1] is used for encrypting passwords. When running gpg-agent passta can be used in scripts without having to provide the password on every invocation. SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS: Passta is neither a tool for password sharing on a multi-seat system, nor is it suitable for transmitting passwords over channels that can be tampered with. Passta utilizes a single gpg encrypted, unsigned file for the storage of all passwords. While that might be a sufficiently secure method of saving confidential password in an environment where write access is limited to authorized users, it doesn't prevent users with write access from tampering with the data. In such a scenario, a user could potentially insert arbitary data into the password file.
