Private Notes Chrome extension security report

Private Notes is ideal for storing the most sensitive information like Recovery codes, Wi-Fi passwords, server configs, etc... Why? Let's start with Privacy and permissions: - There are no permissions - this extension can't make any remote requests or submit any data! - This extension is NOT using own cloud servers, data are synchronized by browser-integrated "Chrome Sync" engine (encrypted). - Your password is NOT stored at all. It's hashed (something like a fingerprint) using advanced PBKDF2 function with 100k iterations and strong salt. - Unlocked notes and decryption keys are never stored - they are only kept in the private system memory and will disappear the moment you close browser. - Even if someone gains physical access to your PC, he won't be able to access your notes nor password. This is one of the safest place ever created! Top features: - Encrypted notes - all your notes are always stored encrypted! - Automatic backups - each device creates encrypted local backups of your notes (plus "Chrome Sync" holds a backup) - No need to create additional account - Chrome Sync will handle synchronization - Advanced Text Editor - supports many advanced text features - Code highlight for many popular languages and configs - Compression - all notes are compressed to save space - Auto-lock - will help you keep your notes locked when you leave your PC Limitations of Chrome Sync engine: - Chrome Sync can handle only 100KB of data - so you can't store huge notes. However thanks to build in compression, you should be able to store more than 100,000 characters of text. - Single note only 8KB size limit - each note can have only up to 8,000 characters - again thanks to compression this should be more.
