Passbolt lets you manage all employee access credentials with a single instance on a Raspberry Pi.
The numbers of access-protected services on local networks and the Internet are on the rise, with password management tools enjoying far more prominence than ever before. Companies have to store and manage employee access data centrally to retain access to online accounts after employees have left the company. A Raspberry Pi in combination with the Passbolt server, lets you secure authentication data centrally at home or at work, making it easier for family members or employees to access their accounts.
Unlike most other password managers of this type, Passbolt [1] does not focus on individual users, but on deployment scenarios with multiple users. You can easily install the program on a Raspberry Pi or a conventional server to then publish its resources so they are available to all users on the local network. Passbolt does not require any additional native installation on the clients because it comes with a web interface.
The password manager can import and encrypt data from and export data to other applications. By hosting the password safe in which the authentication data is stored in-house, you avoid the need for special security measures, in contrast to cloud-based password managers. Passbolt also enables convenient logins to web services with browser add-ons, without the need to install a native client first.
