The creators of the Mooltipass hardware password manager have unveiled the Mooltipass Mini BLE, a Bluetooth-enabled version of the device that includes many new and useful features.
Back in 2016, SecurityWeek reviewed the second generation of the Mooltipass open source hardware password manager, the Mooltipass Mini.
The Mooltipass Mini BLE can also be connected via a USB cable, but it can also be connected wirelessly using Bluetooth Low Energy technology.
Stephan Electronics, the Switzerland-based company behind the Mooltipass, has pointed out that the newest password manager uses a dual-microcontroller architecture, with one processor in charge of communications and one handling security features.
For managing the device from a computer, the developers of the Mooltipass provide Moolticute, a piece of software that can be used for web browser integrations; importing, exporting and synchronizing credentials; customizing the device; saving and retrieving files from the device; adding, deleting and modifying credentials; and updating the device firmware.
