Password Management Tools for Businesses and Institutions
Password Management Tools for Businesses and Institutions
Improving cybersecurity by eliminating weak, reused, and compromised passwords
About the Book
This book is written for business and IT decision makers. Its purpose is to help you select the best password management tool (or tools) for your organisation. We examine the main issues relating to password management and take a look at 12 different solutions designed for businesses, enterprises, and teams.
Research studies reveal that over 80% of major data breaches can be traced back to a single compromised identity, so password management needs to be top of your cybersecurity agenda. But where do you start?
- The business value of better password management
- Password management: What capabilities do you need?
- Tools that support operations vs dictate process
- Reduce the complexity of the digital workplace
- Minimise deployment and administration overhead
- Reduce the user-visible password surface area
- Monitor, audit, and review password-related threats
- Do your due diligence
- Vendor go-to-market strategies
The consumer market offers well over 70 password management tools. Thankfully, there are far fewer products designed for businesses and institutions. Through hands-on testing and vendor briefings, we assessed 12 competing products:
- 1Password Business
- Bitwarden
- Bluink Enterprise
- Dashlane Business
- Keeper Enterprise
- LastPass Enterprise
- ManageEngine Password Manager Pro
- Passbolt
- Passwork
- Pleasant Password Server
- RoboForm for Business
- TeamPassword
If you're an IT pro, you'll want to understand the market landscape, so we take a look at the origins of this market, its dynamics and trends, future developments, and the overall vendor landscape. If you're a product manager, you'll probably want to see how your offering measures up to the competition, so we've provided a chart to help you do just that. And if you're a service provider or system integrator, you'll want to understand the reach and range of these products and the commercial opportunities they present - we take a look at that too.
The book provides recommendations for enterprises, and we also offer a few thoughts and insights for vendors to take note of. Speaking of vendors, we asked them to review the product assessment for factual accuracy. Note: There was no sponsorship or commercial arrangement between the author and the vendor.
