Passwork —
European company
built for trust
We're a European organization based in Spain, serving thousands of customers across the EU and beyond, with strong presence in the DACH region, France, Spain, and expanding globally.
Independent, transparent, and proudly bootstrapped.
We’re not a typical venture-backed startup.
-
European origins
Passwork was born in Finland as a small security-focused company and has since grown into a stable, profitable European product business trusted by customers across the globe.
-
Operational alignment
We relocated our legal base from Finland to Spain as our customer base shifted and grew, but kept our entire team and engineering culture intact. Our operations are now aligned with the markets we serve, especially across the EU.
-
Sustainable growth
Today we are a fully founder-owned, independent company — free from outside capital and focused on what matters most: quality, security, and long-term support.
Our only focus: delivering lasting value and security to our customers
Built across borders,
rooted in Europe
Built across borders,
rooted in Europe
We're a remote-first company with a global team of 95 across Europe, Latin America, and Asia. This enables us to attract top talent while maintaining our home base in Europe, with Passwork Europe S.L. registered under Spanish and EU law.
Our company reflects European values: transparency, privacy, and user empowerment. We're fully GDPR-compliant and committed to best practices in data protection and secure software development.
We're proud of our European foundation — but our ambition is global. Whether you are in Germany, the United States, or anywhere in between, we are building for you.

We grow through content. You're invited.
We believe the best way to grow is by creating real value — and sharing it.
At Passwork, we actively invest in building a strong product-centered and security-focused community. Through articles, interviews, research, and case studies, we offer a detailed look into how organizations actually manage security — day to day, under real-world constraints.
Cybersecurity theory is everywhere. What's missing is how things really work in practice. We give experts a platform to share what's working — and what isn't.
We collaborate with CISOs, security teams, engineers, and IT professionals — both customers and non-customers — to surface insights that would otherwise stay hidden.
Frequently Asked Questions
Passwork was built On-Premise first — for teams that want full control of their infrastructure. But we also offer a secure SaaS version hosted in the EU and the US, perfect for organizations that prefer managed hosting without giving up privacy.
Every deployment uses end-to-end encryption with zero-knowledge architecture. On-Premise, all data stays within your systems. In the Cloud version, hosting and backups happen in EU and US data centers, fully GDPR and ISO 27001 compliant — so your secrets are safe, wherever you are.
Every new customer gets a dedicated Customer Success specialist who guides you through setup, integrations, and best practices. For bigger teams, we also offer technical onboarding sessions for sysadmins and security professionals — we’re with you every step of the way.
It’s easy! We provide import tools and guides for most popular solutions like 1Password, Bitwarden, and KeePass. Migration is straightforward, and for enterprise clients, our team can assist directly — making sure everything moves over safely and without stress.
Passwork integrates with LDAP, Active Directory, Azure AD, and SSO providers like Okta and Google Workspace. We also have a REST API and CLI for custom workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and advanced secrets management — giving you flexibility to connect Passwork to your environment.
We release new versions every couple of months — with both security improvements and fresh features. Updating is important: it ensures you’re always running the safest version possible. And who knows — if you recently asked us for a feature, it might already be live! 😉
Our multilingual support team (English, German, and Spanish) is ready to help via email and dedicated channels. Enterprise clients enjoy SLA-backed response times and direct access to their Customer Success specialists. We’re here to make your life easier, from day one.
