The team is pleased to announce the much awaited v3.3 which includes new features as well as some fixes requested by the community. It’s been a while since the last release, but as you’ll see, we’ve been busy!

Auto-fill a form with an existing credential in a click fig. Auto-fill a form with an existing credential in a click

While browsing the internet, passbolt users don’t always know how to use the quick access menu in the toolbar to create or use credentials on a given page. The anticipated autofill and autosave improvements, which we call “in-form integration”, has finally arrived. You’ll be able to perform actions faster within web forms, and be able to quickly generate passwords and save credentials.

We’ve also optimized the original quick access flow to provide better accessibility, with more complete contextual feedback and a reduced number of steps (for example, when inserting a password in a page).

Password generator fig. Password generator

This release also contains a revamped password generator, which allows for the customization of the password parameters and introduces support for passphrase generation. The new passphrase generator produces 9 words using the diceware method. By default, the words aren’t separated, but the user has the option to define a set of characters (e.g. “ ” or “_”) that’ll be used to separate them. The password generator has also been improved, and now generates passwords of 18 characters in length. Also, it’s now possible to exclude look alike characters, like Homoglyphs, and even include emojis 😏.

Translations update fig. Translations update

In our continuous effort to make the application accessible by all, in their mother tongue, this release ships with German and Swedish translations. Other languages, such as Dutch, Polish and Spanish, are in the works and scheduled for the end of the year.

SOC2 Type I Report complete! fig. SOC2 Type I Report complete!

Both the password generator and in-form quick access functionalities have been reviewed as part of an independent security audit by Cure53. So, they should be safe for everyone to use! We also completed another series of audits for the API code and cloud infrastructure. We’ll share the results with you soon in a dedicated blog post (spoiler alert: no critical issue found).

We’ve also successfully completed our SOC2 Type I audit. Our SOC 2 Type II is also well underway and will be available by Q1 2022. These audits are just another step in our on-going compliance and security efforts.

Mobile applications are pending reviews. fig. Mobile applications are pending reviews.

Ok, now for the final reveal. It’s been almost a year that we’ve been working on the passbolt mobile application (Android and IOS). This v3.3 release is shipping with its experimental support, which you can optionally enable to test! We’re currently waiting for the app’s reviews on the different web stores and we’ll publish a blog article to explain how to test the mobile app. The app will be available for general use and enabled by default once an independent security audit is completed by the end of November. Stay tuned!

A big thank you to the people who reported and documented bugs on github and the community forum, provided your feedback on the account recovery specifications. Thank you for your continued support.
