Enpass is the only password and passkey manager that keeps your credentials secure by storing them in your own iCloud, Google Drive, or other trusted cloud – not on vendor servers. YOUR DATA STAYS WHERE IT BELONGS Most password managers store user credentials in their own cloud. Enpass doesn't. We call this zero possession: going beyond the industry-standard zero knowledge to never receiving, storing, or touching your password data at all. For personal users, encrypted vaults live in your iCloud, Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, or WebDAV. For businesses, they’re in the organization’s Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or other trusted environment, giving full data sovereignty. Even if Enpass servers were compromised (and they’ve never been), password data couldn't be breached because it was never there. IT’S EASY TO LOG INTO WEBSITES SECURELY Enpass gives you fast, secure autofill across every website and app. → Autofills passwords, passkeys, authentication codes, credit cards, and web forms → Auto-saves new and changed credentials → Generates strong passwords with a customizable generator → Built-in authenticator (TOTP) – no separate app needed for 6-digit codes ORGANIZE YOUR DIGITAL LIFE Keep your credentials organized with unlimited vaults, flexible categories, and customizable templates. → Unlimited passwords, passkeys, and vaults across unlimited devices with the Premium plan (up to 25 credentials on the Free plan) → Customizable templates, categories, and tags to organize credentials and private files → Add, remove, and rearrange fields → Attach documents and images to credentials → Import easily from other password managers and CSV files WORKS ACROSS ALL YOUR DEVICES Enpass is available wherever you work, on every device and browser you use. → Native apps for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Linux → Browser extensions for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, Brave, Vivaldi, and Opera → Apple Watch and Wear OS support → Vault storage options include Microsoft 365/OneDrive, Google Workspace/Drive, iCloud, Box, Dropbox, Nextcloud, and WebDAV KEEP ON TOP OF SECURITY Enpass continuously monitors your credential security and alerts you to vulnerabilities before they become incidents. → Security alerts if a credential is in a known breach or has been compromised → App dashboard shows your password security score and highlights weak, compromised, and duplicate passwords → Highlights accounts that support multifactor authentication and passkeys → Unlock with face ID, fingerprint, PIN, or keyfile PASSKEYS: AHEAD OF THE GAME Enpass supports passkeys across all devices and has already implemented emerging WebAuthn Level 3 passkey standards ahead of the formal W3C recommendation. → Create, store, and use passkeys → Passkeys are stored securely in your vault saved in your trusted infrastructure, never on a central server → Full cross-platform support, ready for a passwordless future FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION If your organization has deployed Enpass, the Enpass Admin Console lets IT and security teams ensure compliance. → Policy enforcement and security audit dashboards → Automatic user provisioning and offboarding via SCIM → SSO integration → SIEM integration and event and audit logs → Access recovery → UEM/MDM deployment configurations → Dark web monitoring → MCP server – AI agent access to admin data on password health and security posture → 24/7/365 technical support SECURITY AND COMPLIANCE Enpass is independently SOC 2 Type II audited, ISO 27001:2022 accredited, and fully GDPR compliant.
