Quick pick

Keeper fits if institutional compliance — FedRAMP, SOC 2, ISO 27001 — or enterprise recovery management are requirements.

Proton Pass fits if metadata encryption, Swiss jurisdiction, and transparent architecture matter more than compliance certification — especially within the Proton ecosystem.

Keeper is FedRAMP authorized with the broadest enterprise compliance stack in the category. Proton Pass leads on transparency (8.9 vs 8.2) and privacy architecture — metadata encryption, Swiss jurisdiction, open source clients. Recovery separates them further: Keeper 6.6 vs Proton Pass 4.5.

If you choose Keeper

What you get that Proton Pass doesn't offer

FedRAMP authorization, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001. Enterprise-grade recovery: multiple access paths for teams, no single-point lockout. Advanced enterprise features: role-based access control, SSO integrations, compliance reporting.

What you give up

Proton Pass's metadata encryption on URLs and email addresses. Swiss jurisdiction. Open source clients. Keeper's audit reports require NDA to access; Proton Pass publishes results openly.

If you choose Proton Pass

What you get that Keeper doesn't offer

Metadata encryption on URLs and email addresses. Swiss jurisdiction with strong statutory protections. Open source clients. Built-in email alias integration. Transparency score 8.9 vs Keeper's 8.2 — audit results are publicly accessible.

What you give up

Keeper's compliance certifications. Recovery gap: Proton Pass 4.5 — no delegated access. Proton Pass launched 2023; Keeper has a longer enterprise track record. No cloud-level compliance reporting.
