How does Evaheld's password manager work and is it secure?
Managing passwords is one of the most challenging aspects of modern estate planning. Most people have dozens or hundreds of online accounts, each with different passwords. When someone dies or becomes incapacitated, family members often have no way to access critical accounts.
Evaheld's password manager uses bank-level AES-256 encryption to protect stored credentials. Each password is encrypted individually using a master password, meaning even Evaheld staff cannot see or access stored information. This security standard matches those used by dedicated password managers.
In practice, users store login details for important accounts such as banking, investments, email, utilities, subscriptions, and social media. Each entry can include notes explaining the account's purpose, whether it should be closed or maintained after death, and any special instructions.
Access is fully controlled while you are alive. You can share specific passwords with specific people, keep sensitive accounts private, or allow an executor to see what accounts exist without granting access until required.
