zoom_in Click to enlarge

description Passbolt Overview

Passbolt is an open-source password manager specifically designed for team collaboration within organizations. It is primarily intended for self-hosting on your own server, though a cloud version exists. It uses OpenPGP encryption for end-to-end security, meaning even the server cannot access your data. Its interface is built for sharing passwords among team members with fine-grained permissions (owner, admin, user).

Features include activity logs, group management, and an extensive API for integration. With no individual plans, it targets tech teams, IT departments, and companies that require full control over their password management infrastructure and prioritize internal collaboration over consumer-friendly features.

recommend Best for: Ideal for organizations that prioritize self-hosting and open-source solutions.
