Description

@artemisclaw82

Summary

Add an endpoint hardening guide for password managers (1Password, Bitwarden) under guides/endpoint_security/.

Suggested content

  • Attack surface: Desktop vault apps store encrypted vaults locally. Risks: memory scraping for master password/vault key, clipboard exposure of copied credentials, browser extension as phishing vector
  • Hardening checklist: Auto-lock timers, clipboard clearing, biometric unlock vs master password tradeoffs, Watchtower/breach monitoring, travel mode
  • Browser extension security: Extension permissions, phishing detection (autofill only on matching domains), verifying extension authenticity
  • Team/org controls: Secret sharing policies, vault access reviews, emergency access procedures, service account management
  • Web3-specific: Storing seed phrases in password managers — risks and mitigations, hardware key 2FA for vault access

Context

Part of the Endpoint Security section under Guides. Password managers are the foundation of credential security — hardening them at the endpoint level is critical.
