October at 1Password: Defining new standards, empowering communities, and securing the future
Welcome to your monthly roundup of what’s new in the world of 1Password! 1Password helps author a new open standard for secure credential transfer We’re proud to have helped author a new standard called Credential Exchange Format (CXF), a major step forward in secure, privacy-preserving credential transfer between password managers. CXF will enable people to move their data between password managers safely and consistently, without exposing sensitive details in the process. It’s an open standard developed with other industry leaders to promote portability without compromise.

Minimum browser versions increasing On October 14, 2025, we’ll be increasing the minimum Chrome/Chromium and Firefox versions required to use 1Password.com and the 1Password Browser Extension. The new minimum version requirements will be as follows: Chrome 128 Firefox 128 Edge 128 Brave 1.69.x Existing installations of the browser extension will continue to work, but affected devices will no longer receive updates until the minimum browser version has been met. New options for autofill confirmation prompts We’ve added some new security settings to the 1Password browser extension to improve security. You can now enable a confirmation prompt to appear before credentials are autofilled, helping to prevent accidental autofilling to malicious websites. A corresponding policy is also available for Administrators so they can enable this for their users. New integration for 1Password and ZScaler We recently launched a new integration between 1Password Device Trust and Zscaler to help organizations strengthen their Zero Trust security. This powerful combination ensures that employees can only access company applications from devices where the Zscaler agent is correctly installed and running.

We’re excited to announce that 1Password’s new Secure Agentic Autofill integration is now available through Browserbase, delivering end-to-end encrypted, just-in-time credentials to AI agents in the browser. Secure Agentic Autofill uses the 1Password browser extension to fill credentials on behalf of an AI agent only when required and always authorized by a person. Raw credentials never enter the LLM context, and Browserbase can’t access, see, or modify anything in your 1Password vault without your approval. Here’s how it works: To make this possible, we’ve built a new protocol on the trusted Noise Framework, creating an encrypted channel between your 1Password device and the browser. Every credential request must be approved by a human before it’s filled, keeping secrets secure and under your control. This integration makes 1Password the secure source of truth for AI agents, bringing together encrypted credential delivery, least-privilege access, and human-in-the-loop authentication for browser-based AI workflows. Early Access starts today for all 1Password customers using Browserbase. 👉 Read the full announcement on our blog This new integration is opt-in for developers using BrowserBase, and separate from the standard 1Password in the browser behavior. There are no changes to regular business or personal usage.Join Tomorrow’s Office Hours!
