Cloud Sync
Get your changes reflected across your devices, immediately.
Cloud synchronization is a process that keeps all your changes synchronized across your devices through a central cloud account. Though Enpass is an offline password manager—where it’s not mandatory to put data on the cloud—yet it gives you the freedom to sync your passwords and data through your own choice of cloud.
You can connect Enpass to your account on any supported cloud i.e. iCloud, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, OneDrive or even WebDAV and its supported clouds. Not only this, but you can also set up sync through a destination folder on your network.
Unlike the online password managers, you’re not bound to keep your data on our servers. Using a cloud service other than one provided by the developer itself, gives you total peace-of-mind, assuring no one—except you—can access your data. All your data is 100% encrypted before actual sync happens and can’t be accessed without your master password. Read more about data security.
There are several reasons you should enable cloud-sync in Enpass.
You don’t have to manually replicate the changes in all your devices running Enpass. Every change you make gets synchronized instantly, leaving you with no hassles and worries of doing it later.
When you enable sync, backups of data are created on the cloud. In case of emergencies like device theft, crash or loss, you can immediately restore your data from cloud without having to worry about losing anything.
Restoring your data on the new device from the cloud is so easy and seamless that you can get started as soon as the app is installed. Just connect to your cloud and start working in seconds. Easy-peasy!
By creating multiple-vaults in Enpass for family and teams, and connecting them to shared cloud accounts, you can keep everyone synchronized with all the changes.
Briefly: WebDAV stands for Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning, which is an extension to HTTP that lets clients edit remote content on the web. In essence, WebDAV enables a web server to act as a file server, allowing authors to collaborate on web content.
Enpass supports WebDAV sync with widely-used cloud-storage vendors.
However, it is worth noticing that the user can sync only one vault with a particular WebDAV folder on a specific URL.
Steps to sync with WebDAV account:
Once you have set up multiple vaults in Enpass, you can easily share them with your family, friends or colleagues using cloud synchronisation. However, there are a few points that you must keep in mind before sharing a vault:
Steps to share a vault using the cloud sync:
I. Sync vault data over a cloud account
II. Restoring vault on other devices with cloud sync
No. If you are using multiple vaults, then each vault need to be synchronized with a separate cloud account. Although, by different cloud, we mean different accounts, not services i.e. you can have multiple accounts on Dropbox and set up sync of different vaults with them.
But in case, if you are using the WebDAV/OwnCloud or Folder sync, then you can use the same cloud to sync different vaults by defining a separate path/folder for each vault.
