Sharing emergency kit and master password with a trusted person via a shared vault

The usual best practice recommended by 1Password in terms of the emergency kit is to print it out, fill in you master password, and store that document in a safe location only trusted people can access.

I was wondering if it's a good idea to share my emergency kit and master password with a trusted person on my Teams account via a shared vault.

That way that person could access my account if need be. Would this kind of setup create any potential security issues (other than the trusted person actually not being trustworthy, that is)?

  • Hi @BjoernKW

    The other risk introduced here would be if other administrators on the membership can manage that shared vault. If they can, they could potentially add other people you didn't intend for to that vault. If you're the only administrator, or other administrators can't manage the vault, or that isn't a concern, then no problem. :)
