The latest version of Secret Server 2.1 addresses security concerns by implementing AES 256 encryption, SHA 512 for hashing, and updating the User Audit report. Transferring secrets from less secure applications is made simple with Secret Server’s import secret option. This allows users to copy/paste their vital data from Microsoft Excel in less than a minute. The web-based format allows Secret Server to be used any place that has access to the internet. Proprietary information can be securely retrieved from your neighbor’s house or at a business convention in Japan. Secret Server is also available on many mobile devices and Mac computers. Best suited for multiple users, Secret Server makes it possible for customers to create groups and securely share passwords with anyone they want within a particular group. Users can also monitor their secrets to see who has accessed them and how many times. A significant enhancement made to Secret Server is the “secret type designer” feature. Instead of choosing from a list of secret type templates, users can create whatever secret category they want. Typical categories include: credit card information, passwords, email accounts, and product license keys. Convenience was also addressed in this version of Secret Server. Users can access their secrets while surfing the web. The Web Browser Toolbar (same security as Secret Server) will communicate with Secret Server via web services to see if any passwords match the visited website.
