passwordless login to vault

[coriace]

is there a way to secure the login to vault with a passwordless feature?

If we want to secure the vault of passwords, it should be possible to unlock it with a 2 factor authentication for example.

the aim to have a password manager is to manage our passwords. the login to the vault password manager is too critical to treat it lightly.

Hello @coriace, 

Welcome!

1. Yes. Read: Unlock the vault, Unlock the vault with Windows Hello, 5 alternative options, note - IF the computer & OR mobile device is shutdown, powered-off, on again & logged into, KPM vault requires the subscriber to *input* the Master-password - once - until the next shutdown/restart of the device - this is a security measure                                                                                            
2. Warning: IF the Master-Password is LOST or FORGOTTEN - Kaspersky cannot assist with recovery, Kaspersky have no access to this password, the MP is known only to the subscriber - LOOK AFTER IT!

Thank you🙏

I also suffer from this when dealing with Kaspersky Password Manager, but in a slightly different way from yours.

Im annoyed that I have to enter my long main password every time I turn on my computer! My Windows 11 desktop is not password-locked and it doesn't need to be, it's a huge and heavy PC placed in secure room that no one else has access to but me. Why can't users like me have the vault be open all the time as long as it is on the same computer? If my expensive hardware gets physically stolen, the last thing I would care about is my passwords since most accounts require 2FA authentication. Private and stationary computers should not be treated the same way as public computers or portable laptops/phones.

I've been thinking for months about buying a USB fingerprint scanner and enabling Windows Hello to completely get rid of having to enter my long and tiresome password, but I just carefully read this and it appears that we still have to enter our main password every time after turning on the computer lol. Windows Hello is only useful for KPM vault "per session", meaning only if the vault gets locked during computer use, but if you shutdown/restart your computer then you need to enter the password again. This is stupid and Kaspersky should rework this. That's not how "security" should be.

Hello @BlackEdition, 

Welcome back!

Kaspersky cares about their subscriber's pwd security, other users may not have "huge and heavy PCs placed in secure room(s) that no one else has access to", Kaspersky 'tries' to cater for a global population, the one-time use of the Master-password to unlock the vault on system reboot - is a small inconvenience (ioo), if it ultimately protects Kaspersky-subscribers & their data; IF (you) feel so strongly about it, log a request with the Beta team - https://eap.kaspersky.com/category/58/suggestion - a separate account / password is required OR log a Feedback, I have a suggestion, OR I have a complaint with Kaspersky Customer Service: https://support.kaspersky.com/b2c#contacts. 

Please share the outcome with the Community, when it's available?

Thank you🙏

Sorry but you're mistaken. I understand that in this modern generation most people are relying on phones for their day to day use (even portable laptops are becoming less and less needed these days), but I assure you there are still many people in the world who rely on and use big and heavy stationary desktop computers (which is obviously going to be placed in a room in your house, and almost never gets moved). This is true especially for people who need powerful hardware for gaming or whatever else. There are still many of us out there otherwise desktop hardware companies would've gone bankrupt years ago including Nvidia before the AI boom lol.

This issue can be easily solved for users like me by allowing us to have the vault open all the time unless I manually lock it. Im not going to waste time filing for a suggestion because this will never be looked at or cared about.
