How is it secure?

When password, username, and site informations are stored, they are encrypted using a unique KEY.

For example:

KEY = 'bence'

site: neptun.pte.hu --> b'\x0c\x00\x1e\x17\x10\x0cK\x1e\x17\x00L\r\x1b'
username: ZTBFRU --> b'81,%77'
password: 12345678 --> b'SW]WPTRV'

With other key:

KEY = 'timea'

site: neptun.pte.hu --> b'\x1a\x0c\x1d\x11\x14\x1aG\x1d\x11\x04Z\x01\x18'
username: ZTBFRU --> b'.=/#3!'
password: 12345678 --> b'E[^QTB^U'

It is clear that with a different KEY the encryption will be different.

This encryption ensures that even if someone gains access to the interface, they cannot decrypt the passwords without the key.

Getting the password back:

We have to enter the site and username to get the password. BUT everything is stored encrypted in passwords.db

so, we have to encrypt the user input first:

encrypted_site = encrypt(site, KEY)
encrypted_username = encrypt(username, KEY)

then find the passwords where site and unsername is equal to the encrypted form

encrypted_password = DatabaseManager('passwords.db').get_password(encrypted_site, encrypted_username)

finally decrypt it to get the real password

password = decrypt(encrypted_password, KEY)
