In heylogin there is an option to make logins accessible to users, but to hide the password itself from the user.
Hiding shared passwords is possible in two places:
- For members with read access in a team, if the corresponding team option is activated
- For shared logins to specific users
This has the following effects:
- The password cannot be displayed or copied
- The login can still be used to log in to the website
- All of the above also applies to other sensitive fields
Note on security
Hidden passwords are protected from the user, and are not made directly accessible to the user at any point.
However, the data must still be transmitted to the corresponding website in order to carry out the login process. It is therefore possible for technically skilled users with criminal intent to intercept the data despite protective measures.
Important: This feature is an industry-standard measure to support security in an existing relationship of trust. It is not suitable for a cryptographically secure protection of logins.
