Are you often frustrated by the functional downfalls of your current password manager? Read on to learn why TeamPassword is the most comprehensive and easy to use password manager in the game.
A lot of people find TeamPassword because they&rsquo;re looking for an alternative to LastPass or DashLane. Curiously, that&rsquo;s how our company was started in the first place.
My colleagues and I needed a password manager that was specifically for teams. When we first started back in 2013, there weren't many options for team-oriented password managers, so having a shared solution was somewhat novel. 1password was only for individuals, and LastPass had a clunky enterprise product. So, we built a product that allowed companies to share passwords the way we as a product team were doing it internally, but with more security and convenience.
There were four driving criteria here:
<ul>
<li>We wanted to organize internal teams based on the access each employee needed, clearly see who had access to what, and easily grant or revoke that access as needed. TeamPassword is especially useful for agencies managing client accounts, digital marketers juggling all their apps, and small to medium-sized businesses looking to improve departmental efficiency and streamline collaboration with contractors.</li>
</ul>
<blockquote>&ldquo;As a user of both TeamPassword and LastPass, I really appreciate the ease with which TeamPassword allows me to control who can access certain systems and who can&rsquo;t. As a SaaS provider, we use a lot of other SaaS applications to provide great experiences for our customers. TeamPassword gives us the comfort to share access to those applications within our org, knowing we can easily remove users when needed.&rdquo; &nbsp;&ndash; Tom H., VP Engineering, Network For Good</blockquote>
<ul>
<li>We needed the ability to be logged into many teams at once. If you manage two different company accounts in LastPass you&rsquo;ll always have to log out and back in to your other account if you need something over there. In TeamPassword, you can be logged into one account and have access to many teams. This feature is especially relevant if you&rsquo;re an agency with a lot of different client accounts.</li>
<li>We didn&rsquo;t want to autofill credentials because we manage several different logins for the same sites and the autofill features integral to other password managers inevitably cause mixups. Most of our users are managing multiple logins for each service. So rather than auto-filling your credentials every time you navigate to Twitter, we simply organize all your Twitter logins at the top of the browser extension list so that you can easily select which account you want to use. This eliminates the hassle of having to delete auto-filled usernames and passwords when the software guesses the wrong login.</li>
<li>We needed it to be tip-top secure yet simple enough for our non-programmer coworkers to use. Other password managers can be intimidating and time-consuming to set up, especially for the &ldquo;non-techy&rdquo; people out there. We&rsquo;ve tried to make TeamPassword&rsquo;s setup as intuitive and simple as possible &mdash; the average user should be up and running in 30 minutes or less! &nbsp;&ldquo;Easy to onboard new clients and new vendors/contractors, gives us a reliable/credible/secure platform we can assure our clients is safe. &rdquo; &ndash; Melissa D., Founder &amp; CEO, Grapevine Marketing &nbsp;</li>
</ul>
TeamPassword is equipped with all the features you need to keep tasks, colleagues, and clients organized and easily accessible as you seamlessly transition between tasks, removing password roadblocks in just one click.
We&rsquo;re constantly engaging customers for feedback in order to build new features that address their specific needs and positively impact workflow and &mdash; while keeping TeamPassword uncomplicated and relevant to all types of businesses.

As a small business in an evolving digital world, we know that you are trying hard to keep your critical data secure especially if you are using&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/09/05/steps-using-password-manager-for-your-small-business/">TeamPassword to keep your logins and passwords safe</a>&nbsp;from hackers and cyber attacks. However, not properly removing old users can leave you vulnerable.
Removing a user from your team completely removes their access to any shared logins, but they can still log into their&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/07/26/teampassword-control-panel-how-it-works/">TeamPassword account</a>. Once the user logs in after being removed from the team, they will not have access to any shared logins just any 'private' logins they had on their account.
<img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/AJfaKxEQBOPAtxm9DBPg" alt="tp-delete-user-screen.png" />
If you want to make sure they can't log in at all, not even to see private passwords, please follow the steps below.
First, you will need to use the following link to send an email to the user you wish to remove: &nbsp;<a href="https://app.teampassword.com/dashboard#forgot_password">https://app.teampassword.com/dashboard#forgot_password</a>
<img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/qBpV9FhT9mq3Zf2N0RnX" alt="undefined" />
Enter in the email and click on Request Account Archive.
<img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/2zTHnXCpQEK5eCgZdVMm" alt="undefined" />
Then gain access to that email and click the link to remove the account. If you do not have this email, you would need to create this email again temporarily to get to the email.
The above steps will archive the account and fully deny access to this user. If you have any issues, please reach out to support!

Not properly removing old users can leave you vulnerable. Removing a user from your team removes their access to any shared logins.

TeamPassword: How to Remove User Access

As a small business in an evolving digital world, we know that you are trying hard to keep your critical data secure especially if you are using TeamPassword to keep your logins and passwords safe from hackers and cyber attacks. However, not properly removing old users can leave you vulnerable. ...

TeamPassword was developed to solve a personal problem: An unorganized, outdated spreadsheet and too many sticky notes for any sane person to keep track of. My colleagues and I badly needed a better, more secure system to keep track of passwords and logins. We wanted an alternative to LastPass and DashLane. We wanted a password manager that would address the specific issues our team was facing: facilitate more efficient collaboration; safely and easily share passwords between colleagues, contractors, and internal teams. As we got deeper into development we uncovered more and more functionalities that had to be addressed. The evolution of this product has taken six years. And today, after joining forces with Jungle Disk&rsquo;s cybersecurity arsenal, TeamPassword continues to grow and adapt in order to meet the needs of our small business users.
These six important features were developed because of specific requests from our users, and more are on the way!
<h3 id="thegroupsfeature"><a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/08/03/teampassword-groups-feature/">The Groups Feature</a></h3>
The original idea for TeamPassword was built around the need to easily share passwords between team members. The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/08/03/teampassword-groups-feature/">Groups Feature</a>&nbsp;has been a defining function of our software since the very beginning. We created the feature to allow administrators to set up &ldquo;groups&rdquo; for the different departments in their company. Or, create client-specific groups to share access with the staff who work directly on that account.
<img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/sM13d7vTuGijorj3EMkR" alt="undefined" />
<h3 id="easieremployeeonboarding"><a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/08/24/teampassword-onboarding-new-employees/">Easier Employee Onboarding</a></h3>
Nearly 60 percent of TeamPassword users are agencies that manage tens or hundreds of client accounts. Another 30 percent are startups that are growing exponentially and hiring new employees on a weekly basis. We started getting complaints that admins needed a more efficient way to bulk add (or delete) users to relevant categories of logins. The improved process and functionality of the Groups Feature is a direct result of this feedback. Now, customers are saving an average of 120 minutes when onboarding new employees and clients. With just a few clicks, your new hire has all the login information they need to start contributing immediately.
<h3 id="browserextensions"><a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/08/09/teampassword-browser-extensions/">Browser Extensions</a></h3>
The first version of the Chrome extension launched at the end of October 2012. We got a flood of feedback from our developer friends who often use Chrome as well as Safari, and Firefox for their jobs. We quickly got to work building extensions for Safari and Firefox. Now&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/08/09/teampassword-browser-extensions/">our extensions</a>&nbsp;cover all three of the world&rsquo;s top browsers so that users can enjoy efficient access to all their accounts without ever leaving their favorite browser window. The extensions allow you to access TeamPassword without having to navigate to our website. Simply click the icon installed in the top-right corner of your browser, type in your master password, and you&rsquo;ll have immediate access to all your stored logins.
<img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/gKK4tVdCQAWuUqba0nH6" alt="tp-browser-position.png" />
<h3 id="googlesignin">Google Sign-In</h3>
In analyzing data from nearly 39,000 TeamPassword users, we noticed that an overwhelming amount of you (almost 80 percent) are using Google apps. This prompted us to create a Google Sign-In feature that allows you to access your TeamPassword account without having to type in your master password (provided you&rsquo;re already logged into your google account.) This automatic authentication saves users even more time by using Google&rsquo;s secure login system to verify your identity. Combined with our&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/08/09/teampassword-browser-extensions/">browser extension</a>, this feature ensures your workflow is hurdle-free.
<h3 id="performancestandards">Performance Standards</h3>
When we first developed TeamPassword, we figured most businesses were using about 40-50 logins. We were confused when some of our bigger business clients told us that the system was running really slow. We never anticipated that the average user would manage 147 logins. Today, we regularly see companies storing over 300 unique passwords in their vault. Now we run all our performance tests against a 1500 password average so you&rsquo;ll never get slowed down again.
<h3 id="reorderlist">Re-order List</h3>
Since we know that most clients are managing nearly 150 logins, we realized it was highly likely that some of those accounts were being ignored. A customer requested to see which logins were most &lsquo;stale&rsquo; for security purposes, so we built a &ldquo;re-order&rdquo; list into the Groups feature that allows users to view apps in order of when they were added. The &ldquo;oldest first&rdquo; shows you which apps haven&rsquo;t been managed recently so that you can update passwords to keep them secure, and maintain accounts that have been left sitting for too long.
<h3 id="yourfeedbackisessentialtothegrowthofteampassword">Your feedback is essential to the growth of TeamPassword.</h3>
Our secure password manager, combined with Jungle Disk&rsquo;s network security, encrypted backup, and email archiving services provide small businesses with the protection, adaptability, and peace of mind they need to stay focused on the tasks at hand.
Our easy password manager is built to save you time. We will continue to develop new features &mdash; and improve existing ones &mdash; based on the needs of our customers. Your continued input will help us become the top password manager available. And we aim to be the best!

TeamPassword Browser Extensions Save You Even More Time

How many tabs do you currently have open in your browser? Are you constantly logging in and out of sites that you manage for several different clients? Always searching through spreadsheets and emails for those logins and passwords?  TeamPassword makes this easy!

Perhaps you can deduce from our name &mdash; we&rsquo;re all about teamwork. As everyone at Jungle Disk knows, teamwork is as essential to a successful business as network security and data backup.
The idea for TeamPassword was born out of necessity. In the start-up days of OrderUp, my colleagues and I were spending way too much time searching lengthy spreadsheets for login information. Productivity was constantly interrupted, and valuable time wasted. We&rsquo;d had enough. So we custom built a secure network to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/password-manager/">safely store all our passwords</a>&nbsp;and easily share them with other team members.
Since then, we&rsquo;ve been fine-tuning our technology to meet the evolving needs of our customers. The&nbsp;Groups Feature&nbsp;was one of the first features we built. It is one of the core functions of TeamPassword central to our user-experience.
In just one step, the Groups Feature allows us to:
<ol>
<li>Keep passwords organized.</li>
<li>Manage who has access to what.</li>
<li>Quickly bring new people to our team.</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="the-groups-feature-is-perfect-for-businesses-that-need-to-grant-different-levels-of-access">The Groups feature is perfect for businesses that need to grant different levels of access.</h2>
Most businesses are broken into several departments. Let&rsquo;s use &ldquo;Taylor Marketing Services,&rdquo; for example. Taylor Marketing is a growing agency with over 35 clients. They have a Web Development team, Marketing team, PR team, Sales team, and Finance department. They desperately need a shared password manager because each of these departments, or &ldquo;groups,&rdquo; is made up of several employees who all need access to job-specific sites and apps. But not everyone in the company needs access to the payroll processor.
<blockquote>
&ldquo;The groups are the killer feature for us. Being able to have a collection of passwords for a single client and allow our contractors access to only those passwords (and the ability to kick &lsquo;em out if needed), is worth its weight in gold.&rdquo; - Travis G, Partner, Louder Than Ten
</blockquote>
<h2 id="grouping-allows-the-administrator-to-create-a-separate-group-for-each-client-to-keep-their-specific-account-logins-in-one-convenient-place">Grouping&nbsp;allows the administrator to create a separate group for each client to keep their specific account logins in one convenient place.</h2>
One thing that TeamPassword does that most other tools don&rsquo;t is that we allow you to have one TeamPassword account on many teams, so you create the new group for the client, add the client contact, and ask them to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jungledisk.com/blog/2018/07/26/teampassword-control-panel-how-it-works/">add their logins</a>. Then, add your team members to that new group. When your team logs in, they&rsquo;ll then see and be able to filter by all the groups that they&rsquo;re in.
This ensures team members always have the up-to-date information they need, and the client feels secure knowing that only the people directly involved with their project have access to their information. You can even have a group specific to your company that the client can&rsquo;t see to further organize logins that only your team should have access to.
<img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/MsnwjuBQCWjFW6H4WiiS" alt="undefined" />
<ul>
<li>Those in the finance department are the only ones with access to the accounting systems group.</li>
<li>The sales and marketing teams can access groups by client.</li>
<li>Everyone in the company has access the lunch ordering system, travel and expense system, and fantasy football league.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="grouping-makes-onboarding-simple">Grouping makes onboarding simple.</h2>
In a May 2017 survey, we learned that our customers are saving an average of 120 minutes when on-boarding new employees and clients by using TeamPassword. Guided on-boarding and simple functionality help you get new hires and clients up and running (and billable) within minutes.
Give new employees the access they need to start contributing immediately. Simply add their new company email address to send the TeamPassword invite and once they&rsquo;ve joined, it takes just a few clicks to add them to the groups they&rsquo;ll be working with.
<img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/FNm5lkfmQiC1FTa2Lk3C" alt="undefined" width="930" height="376" />
If someone leaves the company or gets transferred to a new department, the administrator simply removes that person from their former groups. No need to stress over the security of the information they had access to.
Bottom Line: The Groups feature encourages employee autonomy and streamlined collaboration while providing a secure way for the administrator to know exactly who has access to what.
<ul>
<li>That&rsquo;s password management at it&rsquo;s finest.</li>
<li>Improve organization</li>
<li>Maximize collaboration</li>
<li>Increase security</li>
<li>Refine processes</li>
<li>Simplify on-boarding/off-boarding</li>
</ul>

What To Do If You Forgot Your Old Facebook Login

What To Do If You Forgot Your Old Facebook Login | TeamPassword

So you think hackers have stolen your password? You're not the only one. 
Perhaps you've noticed strange activity on your email account or frequent pop-ups on your computer. Perhaps it's just a hunch. 
But how can you know&nbsp;for sure?
There are many warning signs that you've been the victim of a data hack:
<ul>
<li>Your device is slower than normal.</li>
<li>You use more data than normal.</li>
<li>Videos take longer to load.</li>
<li>You received an email notification about a password change you didn't make.</li>
<li>An online account no longer accepts your password.</li>
</ul>
However, hackers can steal your passwords and identity&nbsp;without you ever knowing. That's why it's so difficult to tell if you're the victim of a hack.
This guide will help you work out if hackers have stolen your information and tell you how to stop it from happening again.&nbsp;
Prevent hackers from stealing your data by incorporating TeamPassword into your tech stack. This password manager for teams comes with a range of security features like two-step verification and password encryption.&nbsp;<a href="https://app.teampassword.com/dashboard#signup/testimonial" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sign up for a free trial</a>&nbsp;today.&nbsp;

<h2>Have I Been Hacked? How Do I Know?</h2>
There are various ways to tell whether hackers have access to your information:
<ul>
<li>Look for unusual activity on your account. This activity includes logins to your social media accounts from unfamiliar locations or mass messages sent from your email account.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Look for security emails from account providers that warn about failed login attempts or password changes you didn't make.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Look for changes in performance on the devices, apps, and websites you use. For example, see if videos take longer to buffer than normal.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Look at your browser's password manager (if you use one) and check that nobody has changed these credentials.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
All the above can be a guessing game. You might have a feeling that you're the victim of a hack but don't know for sure. 
Checking a stolen password list like "Have I Been Pwned" clears up some of the confusion. This tool searches across multiple data breaches &mdash; when hackers take stolen passwords and usernames and post them online &mdash; to see if cybercriminals have compromised your personal information. 
Here's how to use this stolen password list:
<ol>
<li>Enter your email address on the main page.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Click "pwned."</li>
<li>The website will search thousands of databases to see if hackers have stolen your personal information.</li>
<li>If you receive the "Oh no &ndash; Pwned!" message, it means hackers have posted sensitive information associated with your email address (passwords, addresses, phone numbers, etc.) somewhere online.</li>
<li>If you receive the "Good news &ndash; no pwnage found!" message, it means the website could not find your information on the internet.&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
Note: Just because the website can't find your data on the internet, it doesn't mean hackers haven't compromised your personal information.

<h2>Which Passwords Did Hackers Steal?</h2>
Establish which passwords hackers stole in a data breach so you can take quick action. Websites like "Have I Been Pwned"&nbsp;won't&nbsp;tell you which passwords are at risk. You'll only learn whether hackers have compromised the data associated with a particular email address. 
Note: Sometimes, hackers might have access to your email address and other personal information but not your password. It's hard to know for sure.&nbsp;
If hackers have access to your data, it's a good idea to change&nbsp;all passwords&nbsp;associated with the compromised email address. If you use your email address for several online accounts, change the passwords for these services. Updating these passwords might take you a while, and remembering the new passwords leads to additional problems. (Keep reading to find a solution.)
Here are some other tips:
<ul>
<li>When choosing new passwords, use combinations of lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Passwords that use all these elements are stronger than those that don't.</li>
<li>Don't write your passwords down because this increases the risk of identity theft.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Don't tell anyone your new passwords.</li>
</ul>

<h2>How Common Is a Data Hack?</h2>
More common than you think. Hackers were responsible for more than 4,000 attacks every day in 2020, and the total number of compromised records exceeded 37 billion. That's a 141% increase from 2019. Much of this compromised data appears on the dark web, where cybercriminals use it to facilitate illegal activities such as identity theft and money laundering.&nbsp;
If you have been the subject of a data hack, you are not alone. However, it's important to act quickly to prevent hackers from accessing your personal or financial accounts.&nbsp;
There are other types of cybercrime to consider. Cybercriminals use techniques like phishing, where they impersonate people online and trick victims into handing over their personal information. Phishing now accounts for more than 80% of all cybersecurity incidents, and criminals steal $17,700 every minute in these attacks.&nbsp;

<h2>What Kind of Information Do Hackers Steal?</h2>
Hackers steal all kinds of personal and financial information:
<ul>
<li>Names</li>
<li>Email addresses</li>
<li>Usernames</li>
<li>Passwords</li>
<li>Addresses</li>
<li>Phone numbers</li>
<li>Bank account details</li>
<li>Credit card numbers</li>
<li>Social Security numbers</li>
<li>Insurance information&nbsp;</li>
<li>IRS information</li>
<li>Photos</li>
<li>Private message</li>
<li>SMS messages</li>
</ul>
Nothing is off-limits for hackers, and these criminals go to great lengths to steal your data. Once they have access to the information above, hackers can transfer money from your bank accounts, use your identity to apply for financing, and damage your credit file.&nbsp;

<h2>Secure Freelancer Workflows With TeamPassword</h2>
No matter how talented or reputable the freelancers and contractors you hire, your company must use secure workflows to protect your digital assets.
Freelancers often need access to shared accounts and tools.

<a href="https://app.teampassword.com/dashboard#signup/testimonial">TeamPassword</a> lets you create groups to share access with only those who need it. When they're done, revoke access with a single click. No need to change passwords every time someone leaves the team.
