Why store passwords in some unsafe cloud? When you can have them inside your keyboard!

Great idea. Now only put a masterpassword on your keyboard....

And hope there is no keylogger installed.

If there's a key logger, you're screwed anyway.

In fact, merely avoiding the appearance of having a mysterious box on your desk that could be a keylogger is a big reason for people to build their Soarer's converter inside their keyboard at work, in case someone freaks when they see the Teensy!

Work always freaks with anything non standard plugged into USB, i got funny looks with a bluecube back when i had the ML keyboard.

So, the other way around: if you would want to put a keylogger on someone's computer, be sure to put it *inside* their keyboard

Fun that you're just starting to talk about this, I'm actually designing/implementing this as a PoC.
(keylogger inside the keyboard that is)

A PoC? Who doubts that that's possible?

People have stored much more in Teensy... For a short read, look at the videos toward the end.

And unfortunatly others are abusing firmware update without hardward dip-switch to upload such payload in keyboards...

Regarding the OP, it's a nice idea, but I have over 200 passwords, which I currently manage with KeePass. What would be useful though is end-to-end encryption from the keyboard controller to the application (either PC or web-based). That way, as long as you maintain physical security over your keyboard, you're protected from man-in-the-middle attacks.
