The number of digital access points is constantly growing – whether it's customer portals, internal systems, or developer environments. Remembering a strong, unique password for each account is nearly impossible. A modern password manager tailored to businesses in Switzerland brings structure and ensures long-term security – without compromising usability.
Why Swiss Companies Benefit in Particular
Data protection is a top priority in Switzerland. The revised Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) introduces clear guidelines on handling sensitive data. A solution that stores data on your own servers and offers full control is therefore a major advantage for many Swiss companies.
In the past, we at Glue used services like LastPass – a well-known cloud-based provider. In our 2020 blog post «Passwort-Manager für sichere Passwörter» "Password Managers for Secure Passwords", we compared several solutions. Now, after a thorough re-evaluation, we once again tested different providers – with a clear outcome: Vaultwarden convinced us with its transparency, full data control, and real self-determination.
Why We Chose Vaultwarden
Vaultwarden is a self-hosted, open-source version of Bitwarden that perfectly meets our security and flexibility requirements. What makes it stand out:
- Full data sovereignty: Runs on our own infrastructure in Switzerland, compliant with ISO 27001
- Zero-knowledge architecture: Only users have access to their passwords
- Modern security standards: Includes two-factor authentication (2FA)
- Ease of use: Browser extensions, mobile apps, and desktop clients
- Team features: Secure password sharing, role management, and permissions
This combination makes Vaultwarden especially attractive for Swiss companies that value independence from global cloud services.
Our Proactive Security Strategy
Switching to Vaultwarden is part of our continuous optimization efforts. We regularly review and improve our systems to minimize risks early.
This decision brings us:
- More control over our data
- Better integration with internal processes
- Greater flexibility for teams – without compromising security
For us, digital security starts with the basics – and that includes strong, well-managed passwords.
