We've talked about personal password management here but how do you guys manage your passwords at a company wide level?

What is Enterprise Password Management Software? Enterprise Password Management refers to the practice and techniques of securely controlling credentials for privileged accounts, services, systems, applications, and more.
The best practice for this type of resource is: Secret sharing through a secure channel (such as a password manager) Secret access auditing (individuals are authenticated, and access to the secret is logged) Secret rotation - the secret is changed periodically.
Desktop-based password managers store your passwords locally on your device, like your laptop, in an encrypted vault. You can't access those passwords from any another device, and if you lose the device, then you lose all the passwords stored there.
To help make sharing passwords both easy and secure, we recommend using a business password management platform. These allow users to store passwords in a secure, encrypted vault, where they can also be shared to other colleagues in groups or teams.
I thought I'd report back after my week of searching...
I've settled on PassPack I've been using it for a few days now for my personal passwords and I'm a total fanboy.
They use the Host-Proof Hosting pattern so the only one that can access your stuff is you and if you forget your password they can't help you.
They have some nice Offline apps written with Adobe AIR and Google Gears.
But, best of all, they fit my "enterprise" requirement because an upcoming release will support sharing within a trusted group.
Plus, I learned about The "Blog" of "Unnecessary" Quotation Marks in their forum.
