1Password is out today with an update that brings new security controls to business users. The Advanced Protection features allow IT admins to enforce 2FA, restrict access to specific IP-addresses, view and manage sign-in attempts, and more.
1Password announced the enterprise news in a press release today. The new 1Password Advanced Protection brings five major enhancements for business use:
- Enforce two-factor authentication. Enforce two-factor authentication company-wide, and choose which second factors your team can use when they add 1Password to a new device.
- Restrict access with firewall rules. Create rules to allow, report, or deny sign-in attempts from certain locations, IP addresses, and more.
- View and manage sign-in attempts. Review recent sign-in attempts and take any action required to protect your team.
- Set complex Master Password policies. Define requirements employees must adhere to when they choose their Master Password.
- Require modern app usage. Check which version of 1Password your employees are using to ensure they have the latest security and feature updates.
