This command line interface is designed to store your network passwords locally and encripted using the popular NetworkManager client.
Information
This program is designed to manage Wi-Fi credentials securely by providing an interface for storing, encrypting, and connecting to Wi-Fi networks using the Network Manager CLI (nmcli).How it works?
- Once the user is prompted to input an SSID and password, these credentials are encrypted using an encryption key derived from a secure password.
- The program uses AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), which is a symmetric key encryption algorithm widely regarded for its strength and efficiency. AES is used by governments, financial institutions, and organizations worldwide to protect sensitive data.
- The program generates an AES key using a password provided by the user. This key is essential for both encrypting and decrypting the data, inorder to generate this key, the program uses the scrypt key derivation function.
-
The program allows users to input Wi-Fi SSIDs (network names) and passwords.
-
It securely stores these credentials in an encrypted format to prevent unauthorized access.
-
Credentials are encrypted using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), a robust encryption method.
-
The encryption key is derived from a user-provided password using the scrypt key derivation function, ensuring that only users with the correct password can decrypt the stored credentials.
-
Users can select a previously stored SSID to connect to the corresponding Wi-Fi network.
-
The program is operated through a simple command-line interface, making it easy to use even for those with limited technical knowledge.
Tip
Functionality is only met once dependencies are met, NetworkManager and GO + addons must be installed prior to running this client.
- Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/azsao/nmcli-storage.git - Enter the directory
cd path/to/cloned/repository- Run the installation script (permissions may be necessary)
chmod +x installation.sh
./installation.shNote
WORK IN PROGRESS, COMING SOON!
All the dependencies must be met inorder to ensure proper functionality with this repository:
- NetworkManager
- GOlang
- GOlang Crypto
