“Every new application, AI agent, and workflow expands what businesses are capable of, but also increases what needs to be secured,” said Larissa Crandall, Global Vice President of Channel and Alliances at 1Password. “Achieving the AWS Security Competency validates the depth of our identity security expertise and our ability to secure access for organizations innovating on AWS.”
Advancing Cloud and AI Security
AWS enables scalable, flexible, and cost-effective solutions for startups and global enterprises. It supports businesses in building and deploying applications efficiently across cloud environments. To support this, AWS created the AWS Competency Program for partner identification. This program enables customers to find AWS Partners with expertise in their industries.
Organizations today are heavily dependent on SaaS, automation, and AI technologies, and these are now part of their operations. These technologies have become an integral part of the operations and have increased the operations’ requirements. So, secure access is now an important requirement, covering all entities, including humans, machines, and AI agents. This requirement is especially important as the infrastructure is being scaled up rapidly.
This AWS Security Competency enhances 1Password’s capacity to secure cloud-native and AI-based infrastructure. This milestone is an important marker in the increased relationship between 1Password and AWS. It also supports secure AI innovation across cloud environments.
“Giving employees flexibility in how they work is great for productivity, but only if security keeps pace,” said Ott Gridassov, DevOps Engineer at Scoro. “With 1Password, we can confidently support employee-owned devices while ensuring they meet our security standards. That balance has helped us improve device health, reduce risk, and keep teams productive without adding friction.”
