Overview Password Boss app password Portal password

Overview


When you create an account in the Password Boss app, this account and password is used to store all of your passwords, digital notes, and other items in the Password Boss app.

When you create your app account, your Master Password is not sent to the Password Boss servers. Your Master Password is not saved or stored anywhere.

Your portal account is used to manage your app account. For example, you can delete devices on your account. Password Boss Business administrators use their portal account to manage their business account.

Recommendation: We strongly encourage using different passwords for your app and portal passwords. Having different passwords adds an extra layer of security to your Password Boss account.
