Often, these accounts are left unmanaged and spread around the entire organization. It is important to lock down access to these privileged accounts. For example, healthcare organizations hold a lot of patient data and banks and financial institutions hold payment details, customer data. The type of sensitive information varies a lot based on the industry. Instead of just copy/pasting your secret key (like in Synergy), with Dropbox you have to create a file, wait for it to be uploaded to the cloud, then wait for it to download on your other computer (or use the web UI), open the file, then copy, and finally paste the secret key into 1Password.Privileges and associated credentials are extremely important as they grant access to your organization's most sensitive information. Certainly, Dropbox is a great tool (there's also Google Drive), but for something as simple as a string of text, using cloud file sharing is unnecessarily complicated. According to the top result, one approach suggested on the 1Password forums (back in 2015) was to use Dropbox. So how does everyone else do it? Well, most people probably Google for something like " how to copy 1password to another computer". End of post.īut, it got me thinking, a lot of people don't know that it can be done this simply and easily. Almost automatically, I then installed Synergy and copy/pasted the 1Password secret key over (just like if my new Windows computer was a 2nd screen off my Mac) from 1Password on the old computer directly to 1Password on the new computer.There's a few ways to copy your secret key (depending on your OS), but on Windows, I open the 1Password app, go to Account, mouse over the secret key, then click Copy.
