Solution

Replacing shared passwords

Model the accounts that genuinely have to be shared, instead of leaving them in a spreadsheet.

The problem

Almost every organisation has them: the logins that live in a spreadsheet, a password manager vault nobody audits, or a message thread from three years ago.

They persist because there is usually a real reason — a single vendor licence, a system that allows one account. The problem is not that people are careless; it is that nothing in the stack models a shared account, so it ends up modelled in a document instead.

What Besecure does about it

Model the sharing, do not hide it

Shared identities let an account that genuinely has to be shared exist as a managed object, assigned to the people who need it, rather than as a row in a document with no owner.

People use it without holding it

Reached through the launcher and the browser extension, so someone can use the account without the password being handed to them — which is what makes removing their access actually mean something.

Remove a person, not the password

Taking someone off a shared identity is a change in one place. There is no rotation, and no message to everyone else telling them the new password.

Still attributable

Use of a shared account is recorded against the person who signed in, so a shared login stops being a gap in the audit trail.

Questions this usually raises

Why not just use a password manager?

A vault stores the secret and hands it out. That is useful, but once someone has seen a password, removing their vault entry does not remove their access — only rotating the password does. Reaching the account through the launcher instead means withdrawing access is a single change.

Does this work for applications with no SSO?

Yes — those are usually the ones with shared logins in the first place, and they are reached through the browser extension.
