Keeper vs KeePass: Comparing password managers

Keeper maintains long-standing SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 compliance, along with TRUSTe certification, demonstrating that strict security controls are in place to protect customer data and ensure the secure operation of its products and services.

Keeper Security Government Cloud (KSGC) is FedRAMP and GovRAMP High Authorized, supporting public sector environments that require rigorous controls and auditability.

Keeper stores more than just passwords in one place, using a proprietary zero-knowledge security architecture to protect employees' information while keeping it accessible across devices. In addition to passwords and credentials, Keeper supports storing secure files and attachments, as well as structured record types such as logins, payment cards, bank accounts and more.

For IT and security teams, Keeper also supports storing and managing infrastructure secrets such as API keys, database credentials, access keys and certificates, and enables passwordless, zero-trust database access workflows through KeeperDB.

Keeper offers a comprehensive administrative console so organizations have visibility into and control over how employees store, share and access sensitive information across the Keeper platform, not just passwords. Admins can enforce security policies, manage users and teams and review reporting for governance and compliance.

Delegated admin rights can be extended to department leads to oversee access and privileges within their scope.

Keeper includes KeeperAI, which delivers agentic, real-time threat detection for privileged access sessions in KeeperPAM^®. KeeperAI monitors and analyzes activity at the gateway level (as commands are entered) and generates an encrypted session summary for review, helping security teams detect and respond to suspicious behavior during high-risk sessions.

Keeper offers Keeper Endpoint Privilege Manager to help organizations enforce least-privilege controls on user endpoints by reducing standing admin rights and controlling privilege elevation based on policy.

This helps limit the impact of malware and prevents users from running unauthorized applications with elevated privileges, all while keeping administration centralized.

Keeper offers robust sharing so you can securely share records and shared folders with users and teams using granular permission controls. Keeper also provides enterprise governance features to help admins manage and oversee sharing across the organization.

For external collaboration, users can leverage Keeper's One-Time Share to provide time-limited, encrypted access to a record without requiring recipients to have a Keeper account. For privileged access use cases, Keeper supports PAM resource sharing, allowing teams to grant access to a zero-trust privileged session without exposing the underlying credentials.

Keeper works across all major mobile devices and Operating Systems (OS), with native apps, browser extensions and a web vault experience designed to keep your vault available across devices.

Keeper syncs your encrypted vault in real time across your devices (mobile, desktop and browser), so changes you make in one place are instantly available everywhere.

Keeper also supports offline access (once enabled) so users can still access their vault when they're not connected.

Keeper has a sleek interface and a consistent user experience across supported platforms, helping teams adopt secure password, secrets and access workflows with less friction.

Keeper knows your questions matter and has support staff ready to help, giving you the option to speak to a person over the phone.

Keeper also offers product training and onboarding with any business plan subscription.
