Gringotts stores sensitive data (passwords, credit
card numbers, PINs, etc.) in an easy-to-read, easy-to-access, and most
of all very secure form. It makes use of the MCrypt and MHash
libraries for encryption, and uses GTK+ 2 for the user interface. It
lets the user choose from among eight strong encryption algorithms
(RIJNDAEL-128, RIJNDAEL-256, SERPENT, TWOFISH, CAST-256, SAFER+,
LOKI97, 3DES), two hashing algorithms (SHA1, RIPEMD 160) and two
compression techniques (ZLib and BZip2) with four compression
ratios. Any file can be used as a password, as an alternative to the
usual text string, giving additional choices.
