The SurfSecret KeyPad allows you to create multiple accounts so that more than one user can use the program to store his or her login and transaction card information. I also found that it offered to import any existing password list (.pwl files) at the first step itself. You can use the Advance option for this. It gives out a Browse window so that you can locate the pwl file for it to import. Pretty fine option for advanced users, as it saves time. If you don’t have a readymade pwl file, you will be creating an entry for each website using the interface of SurfSecret KeyPad that will take time. But it is a one-time effort. Once the data is secured in the SurfSecret KeyPad’ database, you can use it straightaway. You need not even type in the URL of the website. This saves you plenty of time and enhances your internet browsing experience.
The second screen asks you for a master password. This master password is the only one that you need to remember if you are using the SurfSecret KeyPad. You can gain entry to the program only if you enter the master password. You can forget about all other passwords. Make sure the master password is something that is known only to you and cannot be guessed by anyone else sharing the SurfSecret KeyPad with you.
Tip: Use a combination of lower and upper case alphabets with a special character and a few numbers for the password. For example, I can use 18#Ak. It is easy to remember as 18 is my birthday followed by the hash symbol which is then followed by the first letter of my first name in upper case and the last letter is the last letter of my last name in lower case.
The third screen of configuring the SurfSecret KeyPad allows you to configure a USB Drive so that you need not install the KeyPad on all computers. If you want to use the software on any other computer, you can simply insert the USB device into the other computer and use the SurfSecret KeyPad. Once you configure the USB device, you are all set to enter the data into the software.
First of all, you will be entering the websites’ information. You fill in the name of the website, its URL, and your login information. It offers a great option that generates a random password for you. Once you are done with it, you go the page that allows you to enter your transaction card information. The final screen asks for your shipping address. Once you are done with entering all the data, the main screen is presented which you will be using to login to any website, make transaction, or enter your address.
Note: You have to enter the exact login URL for all the websites. For example, if you want to login into your Google account, simply typing in http://google.com will not work. You have to type the login URL, which is https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin. Though it is not complex for most of the sites, if you need more information, you can contact the Help section on the SurfSecret’s website.
