    Per the github page “With the API stabilized, we aim to have AliasVault undergo a thorough security audit this stage. We have already initiated conversations with renowned cyber security companies who have taken interest in taking this on.”

      I hope it doesn’t say as I didn’t bother to check - how do free projects get money for audits like this?

        Good question. I don’t see anything about current funding. They do mention in the road map having a premium cloud subscription to cover cloud hosting.

        I’m a keepass user myself. Too many hosted programs turn to crap one way or another. Let alone the trust componet. I hope for the best with this software.

        Excellent question, because financial transparency is becoming more and more of a factor in my shift to open software.

        And I suspect that there are indeed a few not-so-good actors who are abusing FOSS for political or financial gain.
