Secure Password Management

One of Hudu's main features is to act as a Secure Password Management System. Passwords are protected with AES 256-bit encryption, and searchable alongside the assets they reside in.

It is simple to begin using and managing passwords in Hudu.

The 2 types of passwords

Additional Passwords

There are two ways to begin using passwords. One is through adding additional passwords through the Passwords tab on each asset. 

Direct Passwords

You can also add passwords directly to an asset. This allows you to validate the presence of a password, and will render the password when the asset's details are viewed. You can add a direct password by creating an Asset Layout with a field for an encrypted password.

Generating passwords

Passwords can be created by typing or copying in a password, or you can use our password generator. Our password generator allows you three options: 1) using all characters 2) an easy to say password, and 3) an easy to read password. You can also customize length of the password by using the slider.

Sharing passwords

With Hudu, you can easily share a password to a client. Any user with an editor or above permission level can do this by simply clicking the "Share" button, and configuring how long the share will last before it expires. If you have a company logo in Hudu, the shared password will be sent branded to your clients.
