Password Manager

Overview

In general, all passwords, encryption keys, and other secrets are stored in the Password Manager—a secure tool within Xopero ONE Management Service (XMS)—which uses the AES algorithm for encryption.

When you update your secrets in Password Manager, they are automatically updated in every place where Xopero ONE uses them. This allows you to easily replace all passwords, for example, those used for your storages.

For security reasons, your devices do not have continuous access to secrets (storage login, password, etc.). They retrieve the required credentials only when needed—for example, at the beginning of a backup or restore task. Afterward, the secrets are removed, ensuring no continuous connection between the device and the storage.
