In response to the evolving threat landscape marked by AI-driven phishing attacks and the surge of shadow IT, Dashlane has launched Omnix™, a next-generation credential security platform. This move signifies a dramatic shift from reactive, vault-based password management toward a comprehensive, AI-powered approach to mitigating human risk across the credential lifecycle. Built to address the increasing complexity of credential threats, Dashlane Omnix integrates proactive intelligence, real-time response, and secure access—all within a unified, browser-native experience.
Why a New Approach Is Necessary: The Human Risk Factor in the GenAI Era
1. The Growing Threat of AI-Enhanced Attacks
- A recent Dashlane report reveals that 80% of organizations have experienced a rise in both the volume and sophistication of phishing attacks.
- AI tools like Deepseek-R1 are being rapidly adopted—often outside of IT visibility—ushering in a new era of shadow IT that bypasses traditional security mechanisms like SSO and MFA.
2. The Limits of Traditional Credential Management
Most organizations today rely on fragmented, reactive solutions that fail to account for shadow apps or browser-based threats. This siloed model introduces visibility gaps, making it easier for credential-based breaches to occur unnoticed.
Dashlane Omnix™: Capabilities Redefining Credential Security
1. Proactive Credential Protection
- Omnix continuously detects and neutralizes threats before they evolve into account compromises.
- It covers not only enterprise-managed apps but also unmanaged AI tools and shadow IT environments, which are typically overlooked.
2. Enterprise Credential Management
- Offers a zero-knowledge encrypted vault for storing, sharing, and managing all credentials.
- Allows IT and security teams to enforce access policies, audit usage, and integrate Omnix into their broader tech stack.
3. In-Browser Security and Monitoring
- Via the Dashlane Smart Extension, Omnix monitors activity within the browser to detect suspicious websites, shadow IT apps, and at-risk behavior in real-time.
- Delivers last-line phishing defense by alerting users as they approach potential threats.
4. Breach-Hardened Architecture
- Built on the Dashlane Secure Cloud, combining zero-knowledge encryption and confidential computing.
- Supports a Secure API for integrating credential threat intelligence into external security operations.
Driving Results Through Real-Time, Workflow-Native Innovation
1. In-Context Alerts via Slack and Dashlane
- Real-time, plain-language alerts are sent directly to employees through platforms like Slack, empowering them to act before threats escalate.
2. Credential Risk Insights for Security Leaders
- Dashlane provides comprehensive dashboards showing:
- Weak and compromised credentials
- At-risk employee profiles
- Trend analysis for security posture improvement
3. Scalable Enterprise Deployment Options
- Omnix supports flexible deployment via GPO, Microsoft Intune, and JAMF, making it easy to roll out credential risk detection across large enterprises.
Customer Impact and Industry Adoption
Companies like Chapters Health System, Cineplex, Crane Co., and Port Authority of New York and New Jersey are already realizing the benefits of deploying Dashlane Omnix.
For instance, 79% of customers using Slack-based Omnix alerts saw high-risk passwords updated to secure ones—highlighting the platform’s effectiveness in converting insights into action.
Aidan Turner, IAM Manager at Downer Group, commented:
“With Dashlane, we’ve been able to take a more intelligent, proactive approach to reducing credential risk before it becomes a bigger issue.”
The Future of Credential Security Is Intelligent, Unified, and Proactive
Dashlane Omnix™ sets a new benchmark in enterprise security by addressing the full spectrum of credential threats—from phishing attempts to shadow IT risk. By merging AI acceleration, in-browser protection, and enterprise-wide visibility, Dashlane provides a blueprint for organizations seeking to close the human risk gap in a GenAI-driven era.
As digital work continues to move into browsers and decentralized apps, tools like Dashlane Omnix will be crucial in enabling secure, compliant, and scalable business operations.
