1Password and AWS Join Forces to Strengthen AI-Era Security for Enterprises

1Password and AWS Join Forces to Reinvent Cloud Security

Canadian tech standout 1Password is stepping up its game, announcing a fresh partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) aimed squarely at the changing landscape of enterprise security. In a world where artificial intelligence is rapidly taking hold and organizations rely on a growing web of cloud technology, this alliance comes at a time when protecting sensitive company data is becoming more challenging—and more critical—than ever before.

Today, business isn’t just conducted in offices; it’s happening everywhere, on devices in our pockets, laptops in cafés, and far beyond. As teams use new AI-powered tools—and as apps “outside” the IT department’s official scope sneak into daily use—the traditional model of cybersecurity just doesn’t cut it. That’s where this new partnership makes a difference. By working together, 1Password and AWS aim to plug the gaps and provide companies with the tools they need to lock down modern digital threats—without slowing teams down in the process.

So what does this union really change? For starters, it means 1Password’s advanced access management platform will further weave itself into the AWS ecosystem. The integration will allow companies to manage credentials and “secrets” (like passwords, API keys, and tokens) much more seamlessly across all the cloud environments their people and software touch. The days of passwords getting lost in the chaos, or sensitive information scattered across dozens of apps, are numbered.

The boost for developers is just as important. The new integration between 1Password and AWS Secrets Manager is designed to keep security out of the way of productivity—no more manual credential-swapping or worrying about where “the latest secret” lives. For security teams, it’s about visibility and control: every device and every digital identity, whether it’s a human employee or an AI bot, gets the same careful treatment and policies to keep things secure.

This move comes as the market for cloud and AI solutions is exploding, and the stakes for data protection keep rising. As AI agents become essential to daily operations, companies can’t afford to cut corners or cover up blind spots. 1Password and AWS are betting that by joining forces, they can help organizations move faster and smarter—without letting security become an afterthought.
