The proliferation of credentials outside centralized visibility and control is known as “credential sprawl,” and attackers are eager to take advantage of it. Unfortunately, credential management is a broad problem that only grows in complexity as organizations add new tools, employees, and partners.

Security is tied to business operations in many (often unappreciated) ways, but the connection is rarely more visible or consequential than during an acquisition or partnership. In those deals, a company stakes its reputation and finances on another company, and a lapse in security can throw the whole thing into chaos.

A password manager should make everyday tasks feel simple.

The latest National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) draft guidance on mobile driver’s licenses(mDLs) is about more than one use case or credential type. While the draft primarily focuses on the financial sector due to its high-assurance requirements, the bigger takeaway is that government-issued identity can be cryptographically verified and shared more selectively.

Whether you’re juggling travel bookings with friends or packing the kids’ suitcases, planning a summer vacation can be far from relaxing. And once you get to your destination, the confirmation codes and passport numbers are always buried in the group chat when you need them most.

For security teams, credential sprawl is like dust; you don't notice it until it has accumulated.

Cyber conflict is easiest to misread when we treat it as an isolated technical event. In this episode of Chasing Entropy, Dave Lewis speaks with analyst and author Allie Mellen about her book Code War and why the cyber strategies of the United States, China, and Russia make more sense when viewed through the lens of history, doctrine, and political intent.

AI agents are increasingly used to refactor large codebases, but many teams lack a clear understanding of where they succeed and where they fail. At 1Password, we applied agentic tooling to a multi-million-line Go monolith, and in this blog we'll share what worked, what broke, and what it means for teams adopting AI in production systems.

When Anthropic revealed the existence of Mythos, the frontier AI model they deemed too dangerous for public release, the security community was alarmed. And it’s not hard to see why: Mythos is capable of detecting software vulnerabilities at a previously unimaginable scale, and autonomously crafting exploits to weaponize these flaws. According to Anthropic, Mythos created 181 exploits of Firefox in testing, ninety times more than the company’s previous model (Claude Opus 4.6).
