A Redesigned 1Password 7 for Mac Enhances Watchtower and Adds Flexibility to Vaults, App Login Support, and More By John Voorhees AgileBits has released 1Password 7 for Mac, a significant update that is free to subscribers but also available as a standalone download. 1Password has easy-to-use, polished apps that will work on Windows PCs, Macs, Chromebooks, iPhones, iPads, Android devices, and the major Web browsers. Its Watchtower feature helps you identify. One of them is that we’ve added Watchtower (a feature that has been available on Mac and Windows for some time now) to 1Password for iOS. Watchtower warns you if a site or service has been compromised in a way that would make it a good idea for you to change your password for that site.

With 1Password Teams and 1Password Business, you can create a report to see if anyone with a company email address has been affected by a data breach. Information about data breaches comes from the haveibeenpwned.com domain search database.

An account owner will need to set up the breach report and verify a domain, then anyone in the Security group can view it.

To get started, sign in to your account on 1Password.com and click Dashboard in the sidebar.

Set up the domain breach report

Before you can find email addresses affected by data breaches, you’ll need to verify that you control a domain.

Verify a domain

Click Create Domain Breach Report, then click Get Started. Then enter your company domain and choose how to verify it:

  • Email: choose an administrative email address to send a verification code to, then click Send Verification Code. Enter the code and click Verify.
  • DNS record: add a DNS text (TXT) record containing the verification string to the domain you want to verify. Create the record at the root (@). Then click Verify.

    It may take up to 24 hours for DNS changes to propagate. To verify your domain later, go to the domain breach report, click Manage Domains, then click Complete Verification. If you need help, check with your DNS provider.
