1Password
Secrets managementCheapPassword manager and developer secrets platform — vaults, CLI, service accounts.
What it is
1Password is an end-to-end-encrypted password manager that doubles as a developer secrets platform. Beyond logins and passkeys, it lets you reference secrets via op:// URIs, inject them at runtime with op run, and automate access via Service Accounts, Connect and SDKs instead of risky .env files. It integrates with CI/CD, Kubernetes and Terraform.
What it can do
- End-to-end-encrypted vaults with sharing and access control
- Developer CLI (op) for scripting and retrieval
- op run injects secrets into a process at runtime
- op:// references instead of plaintext .env
- Service Accounts for headless / CI auth
- Connect server and SDKs (Go, JS, Python)
- GitHub Actions, Kubernetes, Terraform integrations
- Passkeys, SSH-key management, SSH agent
