What's new in Zoho Vault 2023

Hello everyone,

Ever since we launched Zoho Vault, we've been actively gathering feedback from our customers, including their appreciations, concerns, pain points, and valuable constructive criticisms. We deeply value this input and remain committed to addressing it by constantly innovating new features that helps our customers to enhance their enterprise password security practices. We're excited to share some of the latest features and enhancements in Zoho Vault for 2023, aim to elevate password management within your organization. 

Geolocation Restrictions:
Geolocation restrictions enable super admins to enhance security by limiting users access to Zoho Vault from specific geographic locations. For instance, super-admins can select “Singapore” on the map and allow all or specific users to access vault only from that region. Here's a quick help link to get you started. 



Enhanced Browser extensions 
  • Payment card: We have improved our payment card detection feature to seamlessly auto-fill card details. For instance, some websites have payment card fields placed within different iframes, making it challenging to detect and autofill them. However, we’ve overcome this challenge, ensuring a smooth autofill experience in such cases.
  • Third-party sharing: Zoho Vault browser extensions now enable effortless third-party password sharing.
  • Prevent developer tools during one-click login: We have enhanced the security of our one-click login process by implementing measures to prevent unauthorized access via developer tools, ensuring the passwords remain protected.
  • Search: The browser extension now offers an improved search functionality, allowing users to search for multiple words and highlights matching search terms.
  • Time-based one-time passwords (TOTP): Users can now fetch TOTPs from Zoho OneAuth for auto login to websites through browser extensions.
  • Website and browser extension icons revamped: Website and browser extension icons have been redesigned and enhanced to improve their visual appeal and functionality.
  • Lock extensions on system lock: Browser extensions automatically lock when the system is locked, providing enhanced security by preventing access to passwords even if someone gains access to your device. This feature is exclusively available on Chromium browsers.
  • TOTP sites: Earlier, our support was limited to websites that required TOTP input through a single field. However, we’ve now broadened our capabilities to cater to websites that have six separate boxes, allowing users to autofill each digit of their TOTP code individually.
Revamped folders
Users can now move a folder from one place to another in the hierarchical structure along with the sharing privileges. Additionally, permission privileges will align with the configurations set in the fine-grained controls and clone-sharing privileges. Users also have the capability to delete folders along with their associated passwords.

User group-specific, fine-grained controls 
Zoho Vault has introduced user group-specific, fine-grained controls, which allows administrators to enforce and adjust feature restrictions tailored to specific user groups as required.



Unlock Zoho Vault using the Zoho OneAuth mobile app and other authenticators 
Zoho Vault has introduced a seamless integration feature with the Zoho OneAuth mobile app and various other authentication methods, including Windows Hello, TouchID, Passkey, and YubiKey. This seamless integration allows users to access their Zoho Vault without the hassle of manually entering their master password every time, ensuring a smooth and effortless experience. Here's a quick help link to get you started. 


Instant notification 
Instant notification alerts will be sent for access control and password-sharing operations that are based on the users' roles and privileges. For instance, if an admin shares a password with a user, the recipient will receive an immediate pop-up notification at the top-right corner of the web interface.



Password Policy Compliance Report: 
Zoho Vault has introduced an extensive compliance report that provides a detailed overview of the password policies enforced within your organization. This report includes a thorough breakdown of enterprise passwords, categorized according to each respective policy in place. Furthermore, it provides details on whether the password is compliant with the associated password policy.



Revamped Password Assessment Report:
Monitor the security of enterprise passwords effortlessly with our latest update to the Password Assessment Report. This upgraded version offers comprehensive insights into both overall user passwords and individual user-specific passwords, providing a comprehensive evaluation of password security across your organization.



We have lot's of new updates coming your way in the upcoming months. Do follow our Zoho Vault community to stay up to date. We also share regular product updates on Twitter and ​LinkedIn.
