Vaultwarden

Manage passwords securely — on Swiss infrastructure. stepping stone operates Vaultwarden as a dedicated instance for each customer: open-source password management based on the zero-knowledge principle, with LDAP integration and full admin access.

Vaultwarden is an open-source implementation of Bitwarden and offers companies, teams and organisations a secure platform for the centralised management of passwords, login details and secrets. stepping stone operates a separate, dedicated instance for each customer on a highly available Kubernetes infrastructure in Switzerland.

The zero-knowledge principle ensures that only you have access to your data — not even stepping stone can view your content. Access is available across platforms via a web UI, browser extensions, CLI and mobile apps. Users and groups can optionally be synchronised automatically via LDAP. Login credentials can be shared for a limited period — both internally and with external partners. stepping stone handles hosting, updates, monitoring and maintenance — your data remains exclusively in your control.

Companies, SMEs and organisations that wish to manage their passwords and access credentials centrally, securely and transparently — without having to manage the operation themselves and without handing over data to US providers.

Typical use cases: centralised password management for teams and departments; management of system and infrastructure access in IT and DevOps teams; secure sharing of access credentials with external partners and service providers; organisations with heightened requirements for access control and traceability; use in combination with existing directory services (LDAP).
