I would like to point out that PostgreSQL offers X.509 certificates
encrypted tables. The leak point in OATH is the seed, which must be
protected using the best tools.

Also, I am against file storage, as you can hardly build a GUI on top of
it. Using database makes it easier to make a GUI.

Kind regards,
