## A note on Password Protected (Encrypted) Profiles
|
||||
|
||||
Profiles are stored locally on disk and encrypted using a key derived from user-known password (via pbkdf2).
|
||||
|
||||
Note that once encrypted, and stored on disk, the only way to recover a profile is by rederiving the password - as such it isn't possible to provide a full list of profiles a user might have access to until they enter a password.

With Cwtch you can create one of more **Profiles**. Each profile generates a random ed25519 keypair compatible with
|
||||
the Tor Network.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the identifier that you can give out to people and that they can use to contact you via Cwtch.

Cwtch allows you to create and manage multiple, separate profiles. Each profile is associated with a different

key pair which launches a different onion service.

||||
## Manage Profiles

||||
On start up Cwtch will launch the Manage Profiles screen. From this screen you can:
