While we are on this subject, I would like to hear from those that have an enterprise password solution, why the do?  
We’ve been talking about it here, and some see a good reason for it, and some see shortcomings.  So, if you can, please 
drop me a line (please go off-list since this is OT).

In this discussion, it’s probably worth noting when schools are talking about individual end-user password management 
tool, a team-sharing based password/secret management tool (maybe for the IT dept) or more advanced privileged access 
management tools (dynamic password management, monitored shell access for vendors, etc.).

Different needs drive some very different choices for password/secret management.  For end-users, maybe easy UI is a 
high priority, but you don’t care about API access.  For IT or back-end use, perhaps you’ll sacrifice some slick UI for 
features that assist with IT automation or advanced security options.

Subject: [SECURITY] Centralized Password Management


Interested in what vendor app the community may be using for centralizing passwords.  I have looked at several products 
and ran across a fairly straight forward and inexpensive one in TeamsID.



Appreciate the feedback in advance!
