Crafting a project proposal involves outlining the key aspects of your project, including
its objectives, scope, deliverables, timeline, and potential impact. Below is a sample project
proposal template that you can customize for your specific password manager project:

Project Proposal: Secure Password Manager


Project Overview:
The goal of this project is to develop a secure and user-friendly password manager that ensures the
confidentiality and integrity of user credentials. The password manager will employ robust
encryption, adhere to best security practices, and provide a seamless experience for users across
multiple platforms.

Objectives:
1. Develop a user-friendly interface:

 Utilize the Qt framework for the desktop application and React Native for mobile
platforms.
 Implement intuitive features for password management, customization, and secure
access.
2. Implement strong encryption and hashing:

 Utilize AES-256 encryption for stored passwords.


 Implement secure hashing algorithms (e.g., bcrypt) for user credentials.
3. Ensure cross-platform compatibility:

 Develop applications for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.


 Implement synchronization mechanisms to ensure consistency across devices.
4. Secure user authentication:

 Implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) for enhanced security.


 Enable users to recover their master password securely.
5. Secure password generation:

 Implement a secure random password generator.


 Allow users to customize password policies based on length and complexity.
6. Database and storage security:

 Use a secure database system (SQLite or PostgreSQL) with strong access controls.
 Encrypt stored passwords and user information using established encryption
libraries.
7. Clipboard security:

 Implement features to prevent sensitive data from lingering in the clipboard.


 Provide an option to clear the clipboard after a specified time.
8. Backup and restore functionality:

 Enable users to securely back up and restore their encrypted password data.
9. Logging and auditing:

 Implement logging for security events and user actions.


 Monitor and notify users of suspicious activities, such as multiple failed login
attempts.
10. Compliance and documentation:

 Ensure compliance with data protection regulations (e.g., GDPR).


 Maintain comprehensive documentation for code, security measures, and privacy
policies.

Technology Stack:
1. Programming Languages:

 Python (for backend and cross-platform support).


 JavaScript (React Native for mobile).
 C++ (Qt framework for desktop).
2. Encryption Libraries:

 PyCryptodome for Python.


 Crypto++ for C++.
3. Database:

 SQLite for lightweight deployments.


 PostgreSQL for more extensive and scalable solutions.
4. User Interface:

 Qt for the desktop application.


 React Native for mobile platforms.

Timeline:
 Phase 1 (Month 1-2): Project Setup and User Interface Development
 Phase 2 (Month 3-4): Encryption and Database Implementation
 Phase 3 (Month 5-6): Cross-Platform Support and Clipboard Security
 Phase 4 (Month 7-8): Advanced Features (MFA, Secure Password Generation)
 Phase 5 (Month 9-10): Backup/Restore, Logging, and Auditing
 Phase 6 (Month 11-12): Compliance, Documentation, and Final Testing
Budget:
 Detailed budget estimates will be provided upon project initiation, covering development,
testing, and documentation costs.

Conclusion:
The secure password manager project aims to deliver a robust solution that prioritizes user security
and privacy. By implementing industry best practices and leveraging proven technologies, this
project will provide a reliable and user-friendly password management experience.
