## Executive Summary
The new feature allows agents to log into a customer's personal accounts while still protecting the private credentials that secure those accounts



## Full Coverage
Concerns have swirled over the access that consumers are increasingly entrusting to AI agents. Now, security services are trying to catch up

Password manager 1Password on Thursday launched a new tool by which users can allow agents to log into their personal accounts on their behalf, without the agent ever having access to a user's credentials

The new platform, dubbed 1Password for Agents , accomplishes this by creating a system of communication between the agent, the user, and the password manager. When an agent attempts to log in on a user's behalf, a unique digital key is sent to 1Password to confirm the agent's digital identity. The user is then sent an alert about the login attempt and can personally confirm the request. 1Password then signs in the agent, filling in the credentials on the digital assistant's behalf, which allows it to log in and complete whatever task is at hand
