BitWarden On-Boarding

What is Bitwarden? Bitwarden is a "Password Manager" - essentially, all of your passwords in one place, and you can access them using Single Sign-On with O365. BitWarden is a browser extension that will also allow you to quickly enter your credentials, along with MFA.

Why are we doing this? The days of Excel spreadsheets with passwords in plain-text are over. This is a security liability, not just for you, but also for our clients. Bitwarden will not only store your passwords, but you will also be able to randomly generate passwords so that all the sites you visit have different passwords.
