NFC Reader for Password

[scotally]

Hi All,

I posted on the Kickstarter page, but John suggested I post here for discussion.

I'm hoping to purchase a USB NFC reader pad for my PC, and store a long randomish key on my ring which I will use as a password for certain applications/accounts/etc - far too long and complex to remember, but ideal if I can store it on the ring and access it when required.

Does anyone know of a) a good NFC reader for USB and b) if any software exists like an 'NFC password manager' for a desktop machine. All I can find is Android apps.

Would appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks,

Ally

Hey there.
This was bought up in the NFC kickstarter page, so I can't take credit on this.
There are quite a few products that connect to the usb of a comp, but from what I'm understanding of your question is your looking for the whole hardware and software solution.
Asus [url:19n4fvo2]http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/NFC_EXPRESS/[/url:19n4fvo2] make this that may be what your looking for.
I will keep hunting to let you know.

I came here to say this!

But my addition would be to have a context-dependant password i.e. it takes the NFC hash, then takes the first 3 letters of the web domain (or similar) you're accessing and spits out a new hash.

This would reduce password redundancy if your password was compromised on one site.
