One Identity has recently introduced a new feature within One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 6.6, which manages and secures the use of corporate personal passwords to access corporate third-party accounts. Corporate users can store their passwords for online accounts to services within a new Personal Password Vault. By leveraging the feature – which is free for all users at Safeguard licensed companies – organisations can ensure proper control over, as well as policy adherence of personal password use for corporate accounts.

They often are not federated with the company access management system and do not adhere to best practices or corporate policy with regard to the security and maintenance of those passwords. The Safeguard Personal Password Vault addresses these potential vulnerabilities.
