Bug ID: 464945
Summary: Auto-lock after a period of inactivity
Classification: Plasma
Product: Plasma Vault
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: ivan.cu...@kde.org
Reporter: n...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
I'm generally good about locking my Vault after I'm done using it, but
occasionally I forget, and realize that it's been unlocked for hours and hours.
Years ago I set my mother up with a similar system on her Mac using encrypted
disk images, inspired by Plasma Vaults. She *never* remembers to lock it, so
it's almost always unlocked 100% of the time, defeating a lot of the benefit of
the security it brings.
It would be nice if Vaults could be configured to auto-lock after a period of
inactivity--"inactivity" being defined as "no apps currently have a file in the
Vault open, or are viewing it in a file manager. Might be tricky to implement,
but if done, I think it could substantially improve local security and also
free the user of the need to perform an easily forgettable chore.
