[ Locker ]

Overview

Locker is a password manager by CyStack, a cybersecurity company in Vietnam. Later it grew a developer product, Locker Secrets, for API keys and other secrets. I designed the marketing sites, the Secrets dashboard and a lot of the stuff around them.

The problem

Security products have a trust problem in both directions. Normal people find them scary, and developers find them slow. Locker had to feel calm and simple for families and small businesses, and fast and no-nonsense for engineers.

My role & team

Product designer at CyStack.

Process

• Iterated the landing page three times as the product and pricing changed
• Built a shared design system across the marketing pages, the dashboard and the desktop app
• Designed for Vietnamese and English audiences, including a page just for small businesses

Key decisions

Plain words for scary tech

End-to-end and zero-knowledge encryption become “only you can read your vault”. The technical terms stay, but they come second.

Open source as a trust signal

The site points straight to the public code. For a security product, “go check our work” beats any badge.

Developer screens stay out of the way

The Secrets dashboard leans on instant search, short labels and quick create flows. Developers don’t want to be delighted, they want to be done.

Screen by screen

Landing pages

The main homepage, a password manager overview, a page for small businesses and a lifetime deal campaign page.

Secrets dashboard

Sign up as an admin, create a workspace, add environments, create and deactivate access keys, search everything instantly, and review an events log of who did what.

Account and security

Profile details, password and master password, passkeys, two factor setup, and deleting your data.

A macOS app with the vault, authenticator, private email and security tools.
