How to easily find "old" passwords that are more than 1 year old?

JoeBloeC7

In 1Password 6 there was Security Audit. It listed passwords that were 1-3 years old. This made it easy to find and then update old passwords. Is this feature hidden somewhere in 1Password 7? I cannot find it.

Welcome to the forum, @eishapiro! For 1Password 7, most of the functionality you remember from the old Security Audit sidebar in 1Password 6 and earlier has been folded into the new Watchtower feature in the sidebar. If you click on it, you'll see not only the familiar features of the existing Watchtower, but also things like integration with Troy Hunt's "Have I Been Pwned" list of passwords compromised in various data breaches. What you won't see is the password-age feature, since although it provided a way to see the age of your passwords, we've never been advocates of changing your passwords on any set schedule. The recently-update NIST standards for digital authentication (which include password guidelines) agree. So we removed it from Watchtower, because if you have a password for a given site that is long and strong and unique (and of course, has not been part of a data breach) then it is no less strong than the day you created it, just because it's over six or twelve months or three years old. If you'd like to read a bit more about Watchtower 2.0, have a look at the "Watching out for you" section of the blog post announcing 1Password 7 for Mac. And of course, if you have any questions, feel free to drop by anytime and ask - we're here to help! :)

Of course, you can always (at the top of the list of items) choose to sort by date modified, which will do what you want.

@danco - excellent point, you can. That will show any modification to the item (including stuff like the notes section_), not just password changes. The sort order you'd want is "Password Age" for such a use-case.
