CIO Magazine reports that more realtors than ever are searching for new tools to help with secure password sharing. Realtors can be especially impacted by this problem, as associations typically sell single-seat licenses to real estate agents in their area that gives them access to local MLS home listings. However, many real estate agents share this information with co-workers and friends, costing the realtors association money. Even worse, some MLS listings have detailed information that is meant to be kept private, such as how to enter certain homes.

One solution to this is to use an online password manager. This type of password keeper can detect when and where a person accessed a password from, and limit access to certain people. Other advanced software can even detect keystroke patterns to determine if multiple people are using a password meant for a single seat.
