Kaspersky has launched a corporate edition of Kaspersky Password Manager aimed at medium and large organizations that need centralized control over employee credentials.
The new solution generates strong, unique passwords, stores them in an encrypted vault, and continuously checks existing passwords for weaknesses and presence in known data breaches. Employees are required to remember only one master password, while the platform additionally safeguards one-time TOTP codes, passkeys, corporate documents, and bank-card information.
Administrators can define organization-wide password policies and assign granular permissions according to user roles. Kaspersky supports the release with findings from its Kaspersky Digital Footprint Intelligence service, which analyzed password behavior throughout 2026.
According to the data, 37 percent of users reused an old password by simply altering letter case, 13 percent appended the current year, and 17 percent added only one special character. Further analysis revealed that 39 percent of passwords consisted solely of digits and 31 percent used only Latin letters, with the average password reused across at least two services.
Kaspersky notes that such practices carry significant consequences: in 2025, one quarter of attacks targeting organizations began with stolen or weak credentials that attackers then tested across other systems to reach internal infrastructure.
