5 years agoThe real problem behind 1P8
The biggest problem with the 1password 8 is that AgileBits are pulling a total and complete overhaul on everything. Sure a new code base is a clean break, but they are taking this as license to chang...

5 years agoSure. So I get the nuances, I really do. The problem is that most 1P users aren't professional security people, so having inconsistent messaging complicates training and enablement. If the message is 'password reuse is bad', that's a full stop. As soon as we offer options/nuances, then where does that line end?
I have two 1P accounts, with two different passphrases. One for work, one personal. Since those don't change, remembering two isn't a big deal.
Now if you wanted to implement some type of SSO-esque system, that'd be fine. Because it's One Password (pun intended) that unlocks multiple things like Okta does. But telling people to manually set multiple passwords to be the same is dangerous.
And, there's another issue. In an eDiscovery situation, there's a possibility that the employee may be compelled to give up their work passphrase...but now their personal vault is exposed.
Happy to chat more about this.
