NAME

App::OATH - Simple OATH authenticator

DESCRIPTION

Simple command line OATH authenticator written in Perl.

SYNOPSIS

Implements the Open Authentication (OATH) time-based one time password (TOTP) two factor authentication standard as a simple command line programme.

Allows storage of multiple tokens, which are kept encrypted on disk.

Google Authenticator is a popular example of this standard, and this project can be used with the same tokens.

USAGE

usage: oath --add string --file filename --help --init --list --newpass --search string

options:

--add string

add a new password to the database, the format can be one of the following

    text: identifier:secret
    url:  otpauth://totp/alice@google.com?secret=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP

--file filename

filename for database, default ~/.oath.json

--help

show this help

--init

initialise the database, file must not exist

--list

list keys in database

--newpass

resave database with a new password

--search string

search database for keys matching string

SECURITY

Tokens are encrypted on disk, the identifiers are not encrypted and can be read in plaintext from the file.

This is intended to secure against casual reading of the file, but as always, if you have specific security requirements you should do your own research with regard to relevant attack vectors and use an appropriate solution.
