I've been working on putting together a set of tools to securely generate and access crypto-currencies placed in cold storage. I've found almost all of the pieces I need except one. Something to allow people to store things like accounts and passwords for exchanges, private keys for crypto-currency accounts, and the like. Ideally, with a way for them to maintain them and permit another person to have access to them in the event of emergency or disaster.

I'll describe the ideal tool:

1) It would provide a secure editor that allows lists of private keys and/or passwords to be edited.

2) Encrypted data could be stored locally. Preferably automatically keeping past versions.

3) Unencrypted data would never be stored anywhere except in RAM while the program is running.

4) It would integrate with Dropbox, Google Drive, or something similar to permit synchronization of files.

5) The tool would be able to run on a PC as an application to access the local copy and not require Internet access. (Though, of course, it couldn't synch changes without Internet access.)

Ideally, a single easy-to-use tool would be best. This is intended to be easy to set up and use securely by non-technical people.

Any ideas?

It sounds like you need a password manager, or something like one. I've heard good things about LastPass and 1Password, but there are many others which may be a better fit for what you need.
