![]() ![]() Microsoft is doing similar things.ĪgileBits has noticed the signs of the time early on and they have concentrated on a platform-independent business model that works just great, if you have to share credentials and other stuff in a secure manner across multiple platforms and with multiple users. Everybody and everything is looking for the next big thing to replace passwords and Apple already is hinting to system integrated solutions with Monterey and so on. The years to come will be interesting for “Password apps”. ![]() [Apparently, they are doing quite well 1Password valued at $2 billion in latest $100M investment round ( employee monitoring). I do not want to defend AgileBits and honestly, I do not think that they need that. The browser integration is phenomenal, not matter if Edge, Chrome, Firefox or Safari is used. On Windows in a Windows network with only http and https ports available to the regular user. It had been a constant struggle to get 1Password sync up and running at work (heavily regulated network). ![]() Not because of the payment model but because of the benefits this server-hosted database has. But then again Ive only just started to look.įWIW… I was working customer support for 1Password when 1Password 7 came out, and I can attest that the biggest issue we had by a gigantic landslide was people who bought the standalone version and wanted the subscription version.Īnd I am one of those guys. I really need to be able to access that stuff on my mobile devices and so far I’ve not really found a folder level encryption tool that runs on iPad and iOS. One ide was to encrypt a separate Obsidian vault (not using their encryption/sync service) and store that sort of stuff in there. So I’m reconsidering full drive encryption on my main machine and also looking at other ways to encrypt a folder of documents. I’m editing notes to see what I can move there as well as sometimes the secure note contains only a few items that need to be restricted access and a lot that don’t. Now the SW keys can easily go into Obsidian. Only current sticking points now are how to store the secure notes I had 1 password, secure data that is not a login like drivers license and hunting license info and the convenient list of all software with the license keys and other info. Now a massive world wide internet dissruption/hacking or a global disaster that takes out infrastructure would but in that case where my money is probably will not rise to the top of the list of my concerns.į you must have the choice of where your passwords are stored, I think your only safe option - albeit a considerably more geeky one than 1Password, Bitwarden, et al. So I always have my own copy of the records as well.Īs to money in banks, I don’t know about you but my tactic on that is to spread investments out among a number of different institutions to ensure that there is at least minimum readily available $ in multiple places sufficient to handle a 1 year emergency so that hacking of any single account or institution will not affect me. Any time I go to the doctor I can get my own personal copies of all test results, x-rays or anything like that and all the doctors notes burned to me on a CD that I can take with me as I leave. Even if the health provider in question is using an electronic system that does not mean its necessarily a portal system and cloud based. Second in my local case we have the option to not use them. I am slightly morelikely to trust those but I still don’t like them. First off the HPPA (sp?) act puts significant restrictions on how those systems are verified and allowed to operate. Is equivalent to suggesting that we have to stop visiting doctor’s offices that subscribe to Health Portals and move our money from banks too ![]()
