Passwd: A walkthrough of the Google Workspace Password Manager

Passwd is a Google Workspace–focused password manager designed for organisations, offering secure credential storage, controlled sharing, and seamless integration with Google tools. Encryption uses AES-256 and happens before storage, with a zero-knowledge architecture ensuring that Passwd cannot access decrypted passwords. It provides centralized admin control, granular RBAC, and audit logs to track credential access, sharing, and changes, supported by SOC 2 and GDPR readiness.

The service signs in via Google OAuth, eliminating new master passwords and reducing credential sprawl, and it connects directly to Google Workspace for identity management with access via Google authentication. Passwd works across web, browser extensions (Chrome, Edge, Firefox), and mobile apps, and pricing includes a Workspace plan from $19 per month with unlimited stored records, a free Starter Plan for up to 15 records, and an Enterprise option that can be hosted inside a Google Cloud project.
