NordPass – European password manager
Lithuanian password manager from the Nord Security family. End-to-end encrypted with zero-knowledge architecture, biometric unlock, and a clean cross-platform experience.
Quick facts
Biometric unlock and a genuinely clean cross-platform app make daily use painless, and zero-knowledge encryption means the stored passwords can't be read by anyone but you.
It's not open source, so you're trusting the implementation rather than being able to verify it yourself, and some advanced sharing features are limited to the paid Business plan.
Why does it score 83?
Incorporated in Vilnius, Lithuania – a full EU member state.
Venture-backed and part of the wider Nord Security group, but no single non-EU company holds a controlling stake.
NordPass runs its own infrastructure across Lithuania and Germany rather than a third-party cloud.
GDPR-compliant, but the apps aren't open source, which keeps the accountability score more modest.
