Understanding Password Security Risks for IT Companies
Whatever service your IT business provides – network infrastructure, data storage, app development, AI/ML analytics, cloud hosting, digital transformation, etc. – your customers selected you for your expertise so that they can outsource with confidence and focus on their core business activities.
As a trusted IT partner, your business has access to the credentials of customer databases, employee login data, webpages, cloud services, servers, and more for every client. You are a critical link in the partner chain – plugged into your clients’ networks, and by extension, the mission-critical systems of their partners and suppliers as well. Your clients expect you to follow cybersecurity best practices.
Plus, every day you see firsthand the drain on employee productivity and the increased burden on IT personnel to reset lost or forgotten passwords. You know that weak credentials and poor password hygiene are the number one source of ransomware attacks and other cyberthreats.
Finally, you are well aware that cybercriminals will eventually target your business in an attempt to steal client passwords and credentials. It’s going to happen; IT companies are popular targets – one compromised password at a systems integrator or managed service provider could expose multiple clients and their partners to cyberthreats. The question is, will the attacker be successful or not?
Passpack: Your IT Company’s First Line of Defense in Password Management
Companies in the IT space know that the best defense against cyberattacks is a multi-layered approach to security incorporating comprehensive network monitoring of login activity, virus/malware detection, data encryption, employee education against phishing scams, and of course, password management.
In fact, a password manager for IT companies that provides advanced capabilities like end-to-end encryption, multi-factor authentication (MFA) and single sign-on (SSO) like Passpack should be part of your first line of defense. Passpack is a password management solution built specifically for users in business environments who not only need to create, store, and manage passwords, but securely share them among team members as well.
Passpack ensures only authorized people have the access to common digital resources with centralized administrator control to easily amend permissions and policies as needed.
How Passpack Keeps Your IT Company Secure
All requests for modifying and creating new passwords, adding and deleting users, and sharing passwords must pass through a central password administrator. This person grants access to users and has total visibility into every user’s credentials and all password-related activity.
Passpack contains an integrated password generator tool that allows admins to set rules for the length and strength of character strings, as well as policies around the use of recycled and expired passwords. The admin can import and export passwords to users and teams, recall lost or forgotten passwords in seconds, update user permissions, and manage all credentials without impacting individual user productivity.
When passwords are shared, they are done so with end-to-end 256-bit AES military-grade encryption for secure transmission. The entire Passpack platform is built on a Zero Knowledge Security Architecture. Only end users have access to their data and credentials; each account is protected by their unique Packing Key only the account owner knows.
Passpack never has access to encryption keys and therefore can never share your data with anyone. Ever.
Passpack provides the features and benefits you would expect to find in a robust password manager solution at a very competitive price. As a cloud-based solution it is accessible from any device running any browser and is infinitely scalable.
Passpack supports an unlimited number of users and passwords, and administrators can create an unlimited number of discreet teams to support role-based access control.
Passpack offers multi-factor authentication (MFA), single sign-on (SSO), and tight controls over eligible domains for who may join your organization and share passwords through a single, user-friendly interface.
