Keeper Security has launched SuperShell, a full-screen Terminal User Interface (TUI) designed specifically for managing the Keeper Vault within Keeper Commander. This feature empowers developers, IT administrators, and security engineers to streamline their workflows while ensuring zero-trust security, crucial for organisations navigating the complexities of digital threat landscapes in Southeast and East Asia.
SuperShell is part of Keeper Commander version 17.2.7 and newer providing a command-line interface that enables users to access and manage vault data efficiently.
As the demand for rapid, keyboard-driven tools grows within engineering teams, SuperShell meets this need by offering a modern, terminal-native experience that keeps security at the forefront of everyday operations.
SuperShell’s design aims for maximum usability, featuring a split-view layout that displays folders and records on one side and detailed information on the other. This intuitive interface allows power users to navigate swiftly through large data sets without interrupting their workflow.
"SuperShell is our answer to modern engineering demands, embedding zero-trust security directly into their daily workflows,” said Craig Lurey, CTO and co-founder of Keeper Security/
Emphasising speed and efficiency, SuperShell simplifies navigation with familiar vi-style keyboard controls. Users can perform searches, switch between panes, and execute Automation CLI commands entirely from the keyboard, streamlining their interaction with the vault.
Sensitive information is masked by default, with options to reveal values for those who require deeper inspections of records. The feature also supports Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP) for records requiring two-factor authentication, enhancing security during sensitive operations.
The firm is set to expand SuperShell’s capabilities to encompass KeeperPAM features such as remote access connections and secure tunnels. This integration ensures that security professionals can manage privileged access efficiently, reinforcing compliance and risk management across their organisations.
Keeper Security also announced expanded Privileged Access Management (PAM) capabilities tailored for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environments.
This improvement targets one of the industry's significant security weak points, allowing organisations to manage and monitor privileged access—especially crucial as identity-based attacks increase in a cloud-oriented landscape.
With features like automated credential rotation and unified management for Google Workspace and GCP, KeeperPAM enables organisations to enforce least privilege principles, essential for minimising the potential impact of credential compromises.
Darren Guccione, CEO and co-founder of Keeper Security, emphasisedg on the importance of applying zero-trust principles consistently across cloud environments. By eliminating standing access and reinforcing continuous verification, organisations can mitigate the risks associated with modern credential misuse.
As cybersecurity professionals in Asia look to enhance their operational efficacy, SuperShell stands out as a vital tool that merges convenience and security, paving the way for a more resilient digital future.
