We use it to store secrets (passwords) for websites and applications. Secrets for production access can also be checked out in approved time windows, meaning you can schedule the access ahead of time. This is a great way to manage and approve this type of privileged access. Secrets can be individual or shared within a team.

We use Thychotic Secret Server for privilege access management. All our admin and service accounts are managed through the software. We engage in password rotation, automated login through Thychotic interface into servers and other privileges environments. It enables us to be able to maintain secure access across our various environments which include production, development, staging, tests, etc. without having to engage in cumbersome password and access management.

We use Secret Server not only as a place to store passwords but also as a tool to rotate our passwords on a consistent basis on multiple platforms. We also use it as a "jump host" via RDP and SSH. Mainly our IT department uses it, but we also have other departments using it as well. Hopefully, in the future, Secret Server will allow you to use HTTPS as one of its proxies.

We currently use Secret Server within the IT department only. It keeps track of all of our shared passwords— systems, websites, support sites—in one centrally located, secure place. The department used to use a shared desktop application that was hard to keep up to date, and frequently resulted in passwords being recorded elsewhere unofficially, and as less secure.

We use Secret Server enterprise-wide as the source for all password administration. It generally (but not always) generates our passwords, so as to maintain password complexity. We use it to securely share passwords between administrators and users. On a personal level, I use it for my personal passwords as well. It keeps them secure, albeit on our corporate hardware.
