It works locally on the user’s device and detects the presence of text on pictures by analyzing a specific pattern of lines.

The technology doesn’t recognize the content of the document and doesn’t send the picture to Kaspersky Lab servers for processing. Thanks to technology based on machine learning and an algorithmic approach, the product determines whether an image is a document, and prompts the user to save it in a secure form inside the program and delete the unencrypted copy if desired. The new Kaspersky Password Manager can also scan a computer for images of documents, for example, passport or insurance policy scans, which many people store in this format – just in case. To provide additional security for this valuable information and prevent possible theft, the product only transmits this information to sites after their reliability has been verified. The new version of the solution now comes with the option to store and automatically enter the user’s address and banking data on payment sites. That’s why it’s important not to forget the master password –without it, data recovery, even via Kaspersky Lab technical support, will be impossible.

No one but the user has access to the data. It is also synchronized across a user’s computers and mobile devices, as well as the web version of the solution on the My Kaspersky portal. All that data is stored in encrypted format and automatically entered into the corresponding registration forms on sites. In an age of information overload, Kaspersky Password Manager means users only have to remember one master password to access a secure vault containing their logins, passwords, contacts, bank card details, and more.

Now, the solution not only stores login/password pairs but also payment data –which gets an extra layer of protection when entered automatically on sites – as well asscans and photosof documents, whichthe product is capable of recognizing.Īccording to a recent survey of 14,552 respondents from 30 countries around the world, the average adult Internet user has 14 password-protected online accounts, services or applications. Kaspersky Lab has introduced the new generation of its Freemium solution Kaspersky Password Manager.
