Keeper Security Recognized in PAM Magic Quadrant™ and as Second Fastest Growing Security Company Globally
Learn MorePassword Boss by CyberFOX handles basic credential vaulting for MSP-managed SMBs. Keeper delivers enterprise-grade password management with a zero-knowledge architecture, deep governance controls and compliance coverage.
Keeper's enterprise password manager is part of its broader KeeperPAM platform that includes secrets management, privileged session management, endpoint privilege management and Remote Browser Isolation (RBI). Each component is secured in the same zero-knowledge vault and managed from a single console. There's no second tool to deploy when a client's requirements grow.
Weekly product updates ship with published release notes. Keeper is used by SMBs and large enterprises, including clients in healthcare, financial services and the federal government.
Based on publicly available information, Password Boss covers core credential vaulting, team sharing and MSP multi-tenant management. The WebApp version receives regular updates, including new features like the Companies Vault for shared credentials.
The Desktop app (v5) is in limited development with no major releases since 2019, and CyberFOX is actively migrating users to the WebApp. Password management is the full scope; there is no session recording, secrets management, endpoint privilege management or database access across the platform.
Keeper encrypts and decrypts everything on the user's device using AES-256. Keeper's servers only ever hold ciphertext. Keeper has no ability to decrypt vault contents because the decryption keys never leave the user's device. Tenant isolation is enforced architecturally: No MSP technician, Keeper employee or third party can access another tenant's data.
Keeper is zero-knowledge and uses FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography, the standard required for U.S. federal systems and a prerequisite for FedRAMP Certification.
Password Boss has a zero-knowledge architecture: data is encrypted locally with AES-256 and PBKDF2 before it leaves the device, and CyberFOX has no ability to access vault contents. Sharing also uses zero-knowledge encryption, where only the owner and approved recipients can decrypt shared items.
Password Boss does not hold FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography certification, which is required for U.S. federal procurement.
Keeper's admin controls cover Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) enforcement, record-sharing restrictions by type and recipient, password complexity requirements and audit logging, all set at the policy level across users and tenants.
Delegated admin roles work for both MSP technicians and internal administrators. Cross-tenant policy templates allow a new client to be onboarded against the same security baseline as every other client without rebuilding configurations from scratch.
Based on publicly available documentation, Password Boss supports role-based access and multi-tenant management. PSA integrations connect to common MSP tooling for ticketing and operations.
Administrative controls cover user access and credential sharing. Policy granularity is more limited than Keeper; there is no MFA enforcement at the policy level, and sharing controls offer less specificity around record type and recipient.
Keeper provides compliance-grade visibility with Advanced Reporting & Alerts, tracking 200+ event types across logins, record access, sharing activity, permission changes, administrative actions and vault activity. Audit events can be streamed or exported through SIEM and audit-log integrations, including Splunk, IBM QRadar, Microsoft Sentinel, Datadog, Sumo Logic, Google Chronicle and others.
Keeper BreachWatch® continuously monitors passwords stored in users' vaults against known breach data and alerts users and administrators when credentials are exposed and need to be changed.
In MSP environments, each Managed Company (MC) is logically and cryptographically isolated. Authorized client admins can generate on-demand compliance reports for audits without relying on MSP-provided screenshots or manual exports.
Password Boss provides password vaulting, password auditing, dark web scanning and MSP-facing dashboards with security scores, customer health reporting, usage data and audit log visibility.
MSPs can scan and monitor customer credentials for breach exposure and use dashboards to surface password health across managed accounts.
Keeper Secrets Manager extends protection beyond employee passwords to machine and infrastructure secrets, including API keys, service account credentials, database passwords, access keys, certificates and other confidential data.
Secrets are protected by Keeper's zero-knowledge architecture. They can be securely injected into CI/CD pipelines, containers, Kubernetes, developer tools and automation workflows without hard-coded credentials.
Password Boss is focused on MSP password management for employee passwords, secure sharing, dark web monitoring, dashboards and reporting. It does not provide a dedicated secrets management layer for infrastructure secrets, CI/CD pipelines, containers, Kubernetes, SDK-based secret retrieval or automated runtime injection.
Keeper is built for regulated and compliance-driven environments, with FedRAMP High Certification and GovRAMP High Authorization, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, ISO 27017 and ISO 27018 certifications, PCI DSS compliance and FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography.
Together, these certifications and validations help MSPs meet the procurement requirements of healthcare, financial services, federal agencies and state and local government clients.
CyberFOX holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certifications across Password Boss and AutoElevate, providing a credible security baseline for commercial MSP clients.
Password Boss does not offer the same breadth of compliance coverage as Keeper. It does not hold ISO 27017 or ISO 27018 certifications, is not FedRAMP Certified or GovRAMP Authorized, and does not publicly list PCI DSS compliance or FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography as part of its compliance posture.
Keeper's MSP platform is built for scalable multi-tenant administration. Each managed company operates as its own isolated tenant, while MSPs can manage clients centrally through the Keeper Admin Console. Keeper supports delegated administration, role-based access controls and policy enforcement, allowing MSPs to standardize security baselines across client environments while still enabling internal administrators to manage their own users when needed.
Keeper supports fully managed and co-managed service models. Managed companies can be administered directly by the MSP, by a client-side administrator or through a hybrid model in which both the MSP and the client retain appropriate administrative control.
Keeper supports automation at scale with PSA integrations, APIs, CLI tooling and infrastructure-as-code support, helping MSPs standardize onboarding and governance across growing client environments. The same access controls, policies and reporting model can be applied consistently whether the MSP manages five clients or 500.
Password Boss is also built for MSP multi-tenant password management, with straightforward customer onboarding, PSA integrations, role-based access and centralized dashboards for managing customer password security. It is designed to help MSPs deploy password management across multiple client environments with minimal training and operational simplicity.
Password Boss supports role-based admin access for MSP teams and provides reporting through the management portal, including audit logs, user activity, password resets, security scores and account-level changes.

See how Keeper delivers enterprise-grade password management and identity security for MSPs.
If you're using Password Boss, you're using a CyberFOX product. Password Boss is CyberFOX's password management solution, while CyberFOX is the company that combines both Password Boss and AutoElevate under a single brand.
Password Boss includes security features such as zero-knowledge encryption, password vaulting and secure credential sharing. Compared with Keeper, Password Boss offers a narrower set of capabilities.
The Password Boss Desktop app (v5) is in limited development, with the last major release in 2019. CyberFOX is migrating users to a WebApp version that receives regular updates, including new features such as the Companies Vault for shared credentials. However, the WebApp is a narrower product than Keeper in terms of security architecture, governance depth and compliance certifications. Active development on the WebApp doesn't close those gaps.
Password Boss is an MSP-focused password manager built for SMB credential vaulting and sharing. Keeper is a full identity security platform that starts with zero-knowledge encrypted password management and extends into secrets management, privileged session recording, endpoint privilege management, database access and enterprise compliance. For MSPs, Keeper replaces multiple tools; Password Boss replaces one.
No. Password Boss is not FedRAMP Certified and does not hold ISO 27017 or 27018 certifications. CyberFOX holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001, which provides a foundation for commercial clients but is not sufficient for healthcare, financial services or public-sector procurement. Keeper is FedRAMP High Certified and GovRAMP High Authorized, ISO 27001/27017/27018 certified, and HIPAA and PCI DSS compliant, covering the full range of regulated verticals an MSP might encounter.
Password Boss provides a basic vault and access logs. Keeper tracks over 200 event types across all privileged activity, exports immutable logs to SIEM platforms including Splunk, QRadar and Sentinel, and includes dark web monitoring for exposed credentials. For compliance-driven clients who need audit evidence for reviews or incident response, the two products are not comparable on this dimension.
Yes, Keeper's multi-tenant architecture supports MSP delivery at scale with delegated admin roles, cross-tenant policy standardization, co-managed IT support and PSA integrations. MSPs migrating from Password Boss can import existing credentials and expand into the broader Keeper platform, which includes secrets management, session recording, endpoint privilege management and database access, without switching vendors again when the next client requirement exceeds what Password Boss can handle.
