Safeguard Your Business: Why a Password Manager is Your Best Defence
For businesses across Yorkshire and the UK, cyber security is a growing concern. Reports indicate a significant rise in cyber attacks targeting SMEs, with phishing being the most common method. If your business doesn’t have a dedicated IT security expert, implementing robust, yet simple, security measures is crucial.
A password manager like Keeper can be your frontline defence, bolstering both your cybersecurity and operational efficiency.
Elevate Your Cybersecurity Posture
Password managers help your business combat cyber threats and we have thoroughly tested and compared the current offerings. Our team agree, Keeper comes out best and this is why:
- Enforcing Strong, Unique Passwords: Weak or reused employee passwords are a major risk. Keeper generates complex, unique passwords for every account, enforcing strong security policies like minimum length and complexity, and identifying weak or reused credentials that need changing. This is critical as AI tools can now crack weak passwords. We like the passphrase generator that’s included, giving you the option for passwords or passphrases.
- Enabling Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Passkeys: Keeper simplifies the use of MFA, adding an essential layer of security that can prevent unauthorised access even if a password is compromised. It can store Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) codes. Furthermore, Keeper supports passkeys, a phishing-resistant, passwordless authentication method that simplifies logins while boosting security.
- Providing Secure, Encrypted Storage: Forget insecure sticky notes or spreadsheets. Keeper offers secure, encrypted storage for login credentials and sensitive data. It uses a zero-trust and zero-knowledge security architecture with full end-to-end encryption, ensuring only authorised users can access and decrypt their data.
- Securely Managing Access & Sharing: Define user access needs and organise employees into role-based groups, ensuring only appropriate personnel have access to specific passwords. Keeper also facilitates secure, encrypted sharing of passwords and files among team members, including time-limited sharing with non-users.
- Mitigating Risks from Employee Departures: Keeper streamlines the critical process of removing a departing employee’s access to all company systems and swiftly changing passwords, preventing data compromise.
- Dark Web Monitoring: Some Keeper plans include dark web monitoring (like BreachWatch), alerting you if your credentials appear online, enabling prompt action.
- Combatting Phishing Attacks: Keeper’s autofill feature helps employees avoid manually entering credentials on fake websites, significantly reducing susceptibility to phishing scams, which are a very common attack type.
Boost Your Operational Efficiency
Beyond security, Keeper enhances daily operations:
- Streamlined Onboarding & Offboarding: New hires get immediate, secure access to necessary login credentials based on their role, eliminating delays. Similarly, offboarding becomes quick and secure.
- Increased Employee Productivity: Employees only need to remember one master password to access their secure vault, saving valuable time spent on remembering or resetting forgotten credentials. KeeperFill automatically logs users into websites and apps across devices and browsers, boosting productivity.
- Centralised Organisation and Control: Keeper organises all team passwords with unlimited records and groups. The Admin Console offers powerful visibility and control, allowing quick user setup, disabling, removal, team creation, and policy enforcement.
- Long-Term Cost Savings: Investing in Keeper can prevent costly cyber attacks, data breaches, and business interruptions, ultimately saving your business significant money.
