Yes. PassCypher validates access by proof of possession with no server, no cloud, and no WebAuthn.
Why it matters
Because everything runs in volatile memory (RAM-only), it stays offline, universal, interoperable across browsers and systems. This directly serves queries like passwordless authentication without FIDO and offline sovereign password manager inside our Quantum-Resistant Passwordless Manager 2026 positioning.
In one sentence
FIDO relies on WebAuthn and identity federation; PassCypher is FIDO-free, serverless, cloudless, using segmented PGP + AES-256-CBC entirely in RAM.
Context & resources
Federation centralises trust and increases the attack surface. PassCypher replaces it with local cryptology and ephemeral material (derive → use → destroy). See:
WebAuthn API hijacking,
DOM extension clickjacking (DEF CON 33).
Targets: quantum-resistant passwordless security, passwordless password manager 2026.
Short answer
Yes. Arabic (RTL) and 13+ languages are embedded; translations work fully offline (air-gap), no external API calls.
Languages included
العربية, English, Français, Español, Català, Deutsch, 日本語, 한국어, 简体中文, हिन्दी, Italiano, Português, Română, Русский, Українська — aligned with the long-tail sovereign password manager for multi-region rollouts.
Essentials
No cloud, no servers, no persistence: secrets are created, used, then destroyed in RAM.
Under the hood
The RAM-only password manager pattern plus key segmentation removes common exfiltration paths (databases, sync, extensions). That’s core to our Quantum-Resistant Passwordless Manager 2026 doctrine.
Both roles, one stack
It is an offline sovereign password manager that also enables passwordless access without FIDO.
How it plays together
As a manager, secrets live only in volatile memory. As passwordless, it proves physical possession across browsers/systems. Covers intents: best password manager 2026 offline, cloudless password manager for enterprises.
Operational view
Yes. It is cloudless and serverless by design, compatible with desktop, web, and Android NFC environments.
Risk notes
No identity broker, no SaaS tenant, no extension layer — consistent with Zero Trust (local verification, least privilege). Related reads:
Persistent OAuth / 2FA weaknesses,
APT29 app-password abuse.
What you can expect
PassCypher doesn’t certify you automatically; it enables outcomes (minimisation, least privilege, impact reduction) by keeping secrets local, isolated, ephemeral.
Where it fits
Aligned with policy goals in EU GDPR/NIS2/DORA, UAE PDPL/DESC/IAS, UK (UK GDPR/DPA 2018/NCSC CAF), US (NIST SP 800-53/171, SP 800-207 Zero Trust, sectoral HIPAA/GLBA), CN (CSL/DSL/PIPL principles), JP (APPI), KR (PIPA), IN (DPDP). Supports our secondary intent: Best Cybersecurity Solution finalist (Intersec 2026).
Plain explanation
Here, “quantum-resistant” refers to structural resistance — segmentation and ephemerality in RAM — not to new PQC algorithms.
Design choice
We don’t replace primitives; we limit usefulness and lifetime of material so isolated fragments are worthless. Matches the long-tail quantum-resistant passwordless security.
Snapshot
It avoids the layers under fire: no WebAuthn, no browser extensions, no OAuth persistence, no stored app passwords.
