I’ve been using KeePass for years for both personal and profession password
management. It’s an excellent utility. Unfortunately, it doesn’t really
handle multiuser environments and doesn’t have programmatic access via an API.
We need something that can do both.

There is also an open source solution called KeePass, that I've seen used quite
a few times. Looks better than Excel and is cheaper, too.

Hey Matt,
Our IS Security group recently procured this software for enterprise-wide
password management and auditing. It is better than saving passwords in
spreadsheet called password.xlsx only to allow malware to act on threat vector.
Initial DBA objection was in light of oracle key vault which in later phase
integrates key management with database. Nonetheless, we are in the process of
importing all passwords into software and extending capabilities with
powershell.
From bc/dr perspective, we use double-take which has powershell capabilities as
well. Looking to see how to better integrate failover/failback scripts.
Side note, Oracle SEPS (secure external password store) may be an option to
'remove oracle passwords from automated jobs/shell scripts'.
Hope this helps

If anybody on the list has ever used the Thycotic Secret Server java console
api to remove oracle passwords from automated jobs/shell scripts and would like
to share their experiences (and perhaps answer a question or two), I’d love to
hear from you….on-list or off-list, either is fine with me.
