Understanding identity and access management (IAM)
Identity and access management (IAM) helps organizations control how users access systems, applications, and sensitive data. It combines authentication, provisioning, and access policies to reduce security risks, support compliance efforts, and make access management more efficient across your organization.
Securing access beyond SSO
Secure the credentials your identity provider can’t fully manage – — from shared accounts to API keys and off-directory access.
Why credential sprawl still happens
IAM helps ensure that users have access to the tools and data they need – and nothing more. But in reality, most organizations rely on a mix of SSO-connected apps, legacy systems, shared accounts, and developer credentials spread across teams and tools. That leaves security gaps and credential sprawl that even strong IAM programs may have difficulty addressing alone.
Add an extra layer of security to your IAM strategy
IAM and PAM solutions play a critical role in access control, authentication, and privileged session management. But they are not designed to secure every password, passkey, API key, and shared credential used across your organization. NordPass provides secure storage, sharing, management, and auditing of credentials that often fall outside core IAM coverage, helping teams work more securely.

The hidden access risks SSO can’t cover
Non-federated apps and services
Many SaaS tools, social media accounts, and web services do not integrate with your SSO. As a result, employees often manage credentials on their own, which increases the risk of weak or reused passwords.
Shared account management
Shared accounts used across teams are difficult to manage securely. When credentials are shared via spreadsheets, chats, or documents, it becomes harder to manage access and maintain accountability.
Developer credential sprawl
SSH keys, API tokens, and database credentials are often stored in config files, notes, or scattered across various tools. Without secure management, these files become harder to control and easier to expose.
Fill every gap with granular credential control
Create user groups or Shared Folders that reflect your organizational structure, then assign shared credentials by role. This helps enforce least-privilege access across non-SSO apps, social accounts, and web services.
Share credentials securely with granular permissions, including view, edit, share, and autofill access. Revoke access instantly when employees leave and transfer ownership of critical credentials without disruption.
Store API keys, SSH keys, and database credentials in one centralized vault. Activity Log gives you a clear, unalterable record of who accessed what and when for stronger oversight, compliance, and incident response.
Why choose NordPass?
NordPass helps secure the credentials your IAM strategy does not fully cover – from non-SSO apps and shared accounts to API keys and other sensitive credentials. It gives your teams a simpler, more secure way to store, share, and manage access without adding unnecessary friction.

Passwords made simple
The simplicity of the platform and having the ability to securely store all my password information in a single place. It was easy to use and the customer support I received when onboarding was great.

Saved time and peace of mind
We've saved so much time.
Being able to onboard new team members and provide them with instant access to all of the accounts that they need, without needing to share sensitive information has been incredibly useful.
The random password generator has been critical for us to make sure that we aren't re-using passwords.

Frequently asked questions
NordPass supports single sign-on (SSO) to streamline user access and identity and access management. SSO with Google Workspace is available on all NordPass Business plans. For Enterprise users, we additionally offer SSO integration with Microsoft Entra ID, AD FS, and Okta, which ensures secure access management solutions for larger organizations.
Yes, NordPass simplifies user provisioning and access management through automated onboarding and offboarding. The Enterprise plan offers User and Group Provisioning with both Microsoft Entra ID and Okta, providing efficient identity and access management solutions for growing teams.
NordPass offers multi-factor authentication (MFA) to help protect user accounts and sensitive data by requiring an extra verification step before access is granted. It currently supports two MFA methods: an authenticator app and backup codes. MFA is available to all NordPass users, giving organizations an additional layer of protection against unauthorized access.
Full IAM providers like Okta and Microsoft Entra ID help manage identities, authentication, and access to integrated systems. NordPass, on the other hand, focuses on securing credentials that are not fully covered by those systems, such as passwords, passkeys, API keys, and shared accounts used across non-SSO apps and services. Rather than replacing your existing identity infrastructure, it adds an extra layer of IAM security to your strategy.
PAM solutions play a critical role in managing privileged access and monitoring sensitive sessions. NordPass works alongside them by securing the credentials behind that access, including passwords, passkeys, API keys, and shared sensitive credentials that may be outside the scope of traditional PAM workflows.
By giving teams a secure, zero-knowledge vault for storing, sharing, and managing credentials, NordPass helps reduce credential exposure, support least-privilege access, and strengthen your broader PAM strategy.
Yes. While NordPass is not a full IAM system, it supports role-based credential access to shared passwords, passkeys, and other sensitive data. You can create user groups that match your organizational structure and assign access based on roles to help enforce least-privilege access across teams.
For more granular control, credentials can also be organized into Shared Folders and Subfolders, which makes it easier to manage and share access beyond the department level. You can also set different permission levels – such as view, edit, share, or autofill – to control how each credential is used.
Absolutely not. NordPass is built on a zero-knowledge architecture, which means administrators can manage access, policies, and sharing settings, but they cannot view the contents of an employee’s private vault.
For shared items, you can also set permissions such as autofill only, which lets employees use a credential without seeing the password itself. This helps balance centralized control with user privacy.
NordPass is designed to make onboarding and migration as straightforward as possible. For Enterprise customers, onboarding can be automated through SCIM integrations with Microsoft Entra ID and Okta, helping simplify user provisioning and group setup.
For migration, NordPass supports direct import from major browsers and from LastPass. If you are moving from another password manager, credentials can be imported using a CSV file. In most cases, teams can get set up and start using NordPass in a relatively short time.
Browser-based password managers are built for individual convenience, not for secure credential management within an organization. They do not give businesses the control, visibility, or governance needed to manage shared access safely.
With NordPass, businesses can enforce password policies, securely share credentials for team accounts, manage access based on roles, revoke access when employees leave, and track credential-related activity through a centralized admin environment. These are the kinds of security and compliance needs that browser password managers are not designed to support.
NordPass gives business customers control over where their company data is stored. Because data residency can be a critical compliance requirement, all business users can choose their preferred data storage location: an EU or US data center. This option is available regardless of the plan they use.
