Case Study: West Virginia University achieves improved password security and visibility with Keeper Security

West Virginia University Improves Password Management and Visibility With Keeper Security

West Virginia University’s IT department needed an easy-to-use, secure and collaborative password management solution to replace a legacy tool that suffered from poor adoption, weak admin controls, rising costs and a 2022 data breach. To address these challenges, WVU selected Keeper Security’s Keeper Password Manager (Enterprise, with Platinum Support) to modernize password handling across its 10,000+ employee organization.

Keeper Security implemented a seamless migration using Keeper Commander to import records, deployed Role-Based Access Controls, integrated SSO and MFA, and enabled secure sharing with Shared Folders, One-Time Share and KeeperFill. The result was rapid end-user adoption, improved visibility and auditing of password hygiene, stronger control over offboarding and compliance, and a reported strong return on investment—letting WVU confidently lock down accounts and enforce MFA across the institution.
