Universities worldwide rely on Passbolt
Why Choose Passbolt?
Higher education ranks among the top sectors targeted by cybercriminals, with stolen credentials accounting for nearly 50% of attacks (Verizon DBIR 2023), often due to insecure password sharing on and off campus. Passbolt not only offers all the standard features expected from a password manager but also enhances security in collaborative university settings. It prevents password theft by enabling secure and immediate password sharing among university members, assures robust multi-layered protection with precise access controls, and keeps detailed user activity logs to meet compliance standards.
"The transition from our in-house solution to Passbolt has empowered the central IT services department at TU Graz to improve credential storage, boosting productivity and operational security through optimized team synergies and reduced maintenance efforts."
