How does it works?

The script save all the credentials in a JSON file encrypted by Advanced Encryption Standard. AES uses a key to create an unreadable hash. This key must be entered by you. Yes, its similar to remember a password but if you use one encryption key to store all credentials you can forget all the others password and remember only one.
