We use Keepass with the database file stored on a departmental file
share. The share is backed up nightly so in the event there is corrupt
we could go back to a previous version. A few of us also periodically
copy the database locally in the event that the file share is
inaccessible or we are mobile.

Hello-

 

Could anyone share a best practice with regard to the storage and safe
keeping of the collection of all system passwords?  Is using a keepass
type application the best approach?  What about redundancy in the event
you can't get to the stored list or it is corrupt?

 

Any advice and/or opinions would be very helpful.

 

Thanks

Stacy
