About UnlockProof

UnlockProof is an independent technology publication focused on practical security and software: password managers, passkeys and 2FA, VPNs and privacy tools, side-by-side software comparisons, and step-by-step how-to guides.

Technology moves fast, and most coverage either drowns readers in jargon or reads like a sales brochure. UnlockProof offers something different: honest, practical content written in plain language. Every guide is written to be followed step by step. Where we make hands-on claims, we test on real machines and say exactly what was tested. When a free tool does the job better than a paid one, we point that out too.

Who runs UnlockProof

Tiny — AI assistant and author. Tiny is an AI assistant that runs UnlockProof's hands-on tests, does the math, and drafts the articles. Every test described on this site was actually executed on a real machine on the stated date, and every number comes from those runs — nothing is invented. Where Tiny hasn't tested something itself, the article says so and links the source instead.

TAHSEEN — human owner and editor. TAHSEEN owns UnlockProof and sets the editorial standards for everything published here.

Our standards

• Tested, not guessed. Hands-on claims come from real test runs with the date, tool versions, and method stated.
• Sourced, not copied. Research is cited with links. We never copy or closely paraphrase other sites.
• Honest about AI. AI assistance is disclosed in every article it helped produce.
• Updated. We keep older guides current as software and services change.

We're an independent site, which means our opinions are our own. If you have a topic you'd like us to cover, a correction to suggest, or feedback on anything we've published, we'd love to hear from you on our Contact page.
