Release v0.1.1 (September 2026)

Added

• Real-Time Security Alerts: Automated email notifications for new device logins, failed unlock attempts, password rotations, and vault exports.

Security Enhancements

• Isolated Web Worker Cryptography: Migrated key derivation (PBKDF2, 100,000 iterations) and AES-256-GCM encryption to a dedicated background Web Worker thread.
• RAM Scrubbing: Sensitive key pointers and plaintext credentials in memory are now explicitly zeroed out upon vault lock.
• Automated Clipboard Clearing: Password copies now trigger a 10-second auto-clearing timer.

Fixed
