Welcome to your monthly roundup of what’s new in the world of 1Password! Read our 2025 annual report: The Access-Trust Gap The Access-Trust Gap is the widening divide between the types of access that security and IT teams can control and the reality of how people, and now AI agents, access sensitive systems and data in practice. We recently published our annual Access-Trust Gap report with findings based on the responses of more than 5000 individuals working in security, IT, and knowledge-based roles. Our report presents insights on where the Access-Trust Gap is the widest, and where employees are commonly accessing resources without proper controls: 37% of employees don’t follow their company’s AI policy 52% of employees download apps without IT approval 70% of IT/IS professionals say SSO doesn’t secure employee identities Along with the report you can read three supporting articles which explore key insights in detail, and provide further recommendations on how to close the Access-Trust Gap with 1Password. Access-Trust Gap Report The enterprise AI crisis SSO is falling short Password habits are worsening Introducing a new unlock experience We’re excited to share that our updated unlock experience is now available on 1Password for Mac and Windows. This update introduces device-based unlock options as well as unlock presets that allow you to find the right balance of security and convenience. That means you can now choose to unlock 1Password with your device, use your device password to unlock 1Password, and adjust how frequently your password is required. You can find all the details in our announcement. Windows 11 Passkey Support Creating and using passkeys has been available on Windows with 1Password in the browser since 2023. Expanding our passwordless features, 1Password for Windows now offers native Windows passkey support. That means you can create and use passkeys in desktop apps, as well as in the browser, then seamlessly sync them with 1Password. If you have any questions, or are curious to learn more you can check out the announcement post here in the Community. Read our digital estate planning guide Estate planning is an important consideration for everyone. However, what often goes overlooked is a handover plan for online accounts and digital assets. This month we released our digital estate planning guide to help you make sure these important details aren’t forgotten. How will you transfer accounts with 2FA or passkeys to your family members? What will you do with accounts that are left to you in a digital estate? Our digital estate planning guide walks you through these questions and many more.

It’s an open standard developed with other industry leaders to promote portability without compromise.

Migrating credentials no longer has to mean insecure plaintext files or vendor lock-in. That’s why we’re proud to share that the FIDO Alliance has published the Credential Exchange Format (CXF) as a Proposed Standard, co-edited in part by contributors from 1Password. This new format gives providers a consistent JSON-based way to transfer credentials securely between services and represents a real move away from CSV exports. CXF lays the groundwork for secure migration across services without exposing sensitive data or forcing people to rely on ad-hoc export tools. It supports a wide range of credentials from passwords, passkeys, SSH keys, TOTPs, payment cards, Wi-Fi credentials, API keys, and more — and creates a path for providers to handle transfers in a more consistent way. Early support for CXF is already starting to land across the industry. Apple has introduced APIs for bulk credential import and export, Google is doing the same on Android, and 1Password and other FIDO members have already demonstrated cross-platform passkey transfers using the format. Read more about the work behind this milestone, the contributors involved, and what comes next in the full blog post. Got questions about the Credential Exchange Format?
