KeePassXC 2.7.8

Version 2.7.8 of the open source password manager KeePassXC has been released. The program is a derivative of KeePass Password Safe and is being developed in C++ with Qt for the graphical part, which provides a suitable appearance on Linux, macOS and Windows. KeePassXC allows accounts to be saved with all associated data, such as username, password and URL. All data is stored securely in an aes, twofish or ChaCha20 encrypted database.
