Centralized credential management has transformed password rotation and streamlined compliance
1Password Business provides seamless integration with multiple services, AWS accounts, and enables easy management of the password vault and passwords. The automatic password rotation feature is particularly valuable, as rotated passwords are automatically updated to the 1Password Business vault. The time savings achieved through 1Password Business is significant, eliminating 10 to 15 hours of workforce time weekly and approximately 50 hours monthly. Previously, dedicated users were required to rotate passwords, share them with others, and notify stakeholders when passwords expired. This information no longer needs to be shared via email, and the time previously spent on these tasks has been substantially reduced.

Short‑lived secrets have transformed our cloud access and now greatly reduce credential risk
I appreciate that Akeyless Secrets Management offers the ability for secrets to be automatically rotated. When interacting with it via code, Akeyless Secrets Management automatically rotates secrets to increase security. Additionally, I understand that Akeyless Secrets Management does not store the entire secret in one string on their side. The secret is split across different servers, which is extremely secure. The rotation of secrets aspect of Akeyless Secrets Management is excellent. It allows for much higher security and there is a great reduction in potential exploits or attacks to our infrastructure because it is very difficult to get compromised credentials when they rotate so regularly. Akeyless Secrets Management splitting secrets in terms of their storage also means that even if an attacker were to infiltrate Akeyless Secrets Management's infrastructure, it would be extremely difficult if not impossible to get the full credentials. This security is excellent for us and also for our customers. Using Akeyless Secrets Management has greatly increased our security posture, which is excellent and definitely reduces the risk of potential attacks or exploits. From a security-specific perspective, this is excellent when looking at things like data security. It has improved our data security posture. In terms of financial governance, if we were to be exploited in cloud environments, costs can very quickly ramp up. Using Akeyless Secrets Management actually saves potential costs as well.
