Summary
Lockbox is a password & secret information storage program for the iPhone. It stores passwords for websites (or any system), credit card info, or any secret information you need to keep ready at hand, encrypted on your iPhone.
Installation via Installer.app
It's highly recommended to add the official Lockbox repository to Installer.app to get the latest updates, as well as the correct install, update, and uninstall scripts.
From Installer, go to Sources, and click Edit. Then click Add, and enter:
http://iphonelockbox.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repo.xml
You should see the latest version of Lockbox available to you. I've noticed when there is another version available on another repository, Installer thinks you need to upgrade to this, whether or not it's a lower version.
Alternate Installation
You can download the .zip and use secure copy (scp) to install it. Extract the files, then use scp -r Lockbox.app root@myiphone:/Applications/ to install. There will not be a background by default, so copy FlameFractal.png to Default.png, or your favorite .png to use as a background during password authentication.
Version 0.7.1 Released
An issue where data was being corrupted/deleted if a wrong password was entered, then the app exited without authenticating (issue 49, and probably the cause of 24 and many others) has been resolved. If you had data loss with Lockbox before, I urge you to give it another shot, and backup your ~/Library/Lockbox folder too!
Version 0.7 Released
CSV Import - basic CSV import is now available! See the instructions on how to do this. Big thanks to Carsten Heinelt for joining and providing this feature!
Lockbox now works with 1.1.3+. You will also see a Lockbox 1.1.2-1.1.3 migration item in Productivity (or Tweaks 1.1.3) - run this to copy your pre-1.1.3 data over from root's home to mobile if your data didn't get copied during your upgrade to 1.1.3. This will overwrite any data in the mobile directory, ie any data that you've saved with 0.7 or higher while running 1.1.3 or higher, or that your upgrade path already moved for you. Please run 0.7 first to see if your data is there first. If not, run this script.
Version 0.5 Released
I highly recommend installing the BSD Subsystem before upgrading or installing - if you do, you will have Lockbox's password authentication background become the same as your iPhone's background. It is the automated process I described here.

Version 0.3
Finally, the first version is out. It has the core basics - encryption, adding, editing, and removing items, viewing them, etc. Encryption is done via AES128. I used SSCrypto as my engine, with a bit of code cleanup and one bug fix so far :) It uses libcrypto and libssl.
Let me know if you find any bugs, or have any comments, suggestions, or criticism. My email is to the right - nathan at that domain.
