If you follow the links to the Chromium bug tracker, you&amp;#x27;ll note that Chrome integrates with the GNOME and KDE encrypted password managers when they&amp;#x27;re available.

(On Windows and OS X, it uses CryptProtectData and the Keychain API, respectively.)&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;code.google.com&amp;#x2F;p&amp;#x2F;chromium&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;LinuxPasswordStorage&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;code.google.com&amp;#x2F;p&amp;#x2F;chromium&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;LinuxPasswordStorage&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Key for chromium&apos;s encrypted cookies store in Linux is “peanuts”</title><url>https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/components/os_crypt/os_crypt_posix.cc&amp;q=peanuts&amp;sq=package:chromium&amp;type=cs&amp;l=40</url></story>
