The office has been buzzing with Monday morning news and I’ll try to get it all into one post. The Passpack weekend was eventful, to say the least and we also have yet another release on its way…but this one needs some user help. Here is a recap of the weekend and what is to [...]

This weekend proved to be pretty full of surprises for Passpack. While we were working on our future releases, Passpack got some pretty noteworthy attention both in the States and in Italy. Take a look at why we all have smiles on our faces today… Mind the Bridge You may remember Passpack’s announcement of it’s [...]
Sarah Palin’s email security hack has recently been the topic of every news outlet and only brings to light the importance of password management. The password reset story has caught attention for more than obvious reasons and fingerpointing has become rampant, diverting the attention on Palin somewhat inappropriately. Speculation as to how her Yahoo account [...]
Passpack recently gave users the option of signing in with their OpenID, Google or Windows Live account. Now you can use Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo! and Facebook with Passpack. Keep in mind that if you’re not a Passpack user yet, you can sign up for an account using any of the above. And if you are [...]

Passpack recently upgraded it’s SSL certificate to an Extended Validation Certificate. Everything was working fine, however Internet Explorer 7 was not showing the typical “green bar“. Upon installing the library for Apache which fixed the issue for Explorer 7 (last night), the certificate started showing as invalid for other browsers. We’ve now removed the Explorer [...]

Ok, so yes, we’ve caught the Google Chrome fever here at Passpack HQ – it’s a beaut, and Passpack runs like a dream! I suppose that should come as no surprise, as Chrome is built for speed with Apple’s WebKit in the core (among others). We ran a browser encryption speed benchmark some time ago, [...]
It’s here at last, you’ve been asking for it and we finally managed to get it up and running: Who’s next? So how will it all work? Good question, I’ll try and guide you through the first steps and general process. If you have any one of these accounts you can sign up with Passpack [...]
Since Yesterday, PayPal is not sending us confirmation notification of the payments. So the system is unable to update the status of the accounts. We could do this manually, but when PayPal will solve the issue, it will probably send all the notifications and this could create worse issues. So, we are waiting for a while. If nothing happens, we will fix the updates manually.
UPDATE, Jan. 29. The strategy worked because PayPal sent all the notification at one moment, and all the accounts have been upgraded correctly.
We completed the performance improvement of Passpack moving the static files on a new server. This improves also the general security because it is now much harder for an attacker to try to inject Javascript code.
Passpack has discontinued Google Gears support. It was used with slow browsers like Internet Explorer 6 or 7. If you use one of these browsers, probably your account will become really slow without Google Gears. We strongly suggest to upgrade to IE 9 or to a totally different browser like Chrome.
Follow-up to the last post, the billing system is completely functional again. Happy Tuesday!
