Implementation of Corporate Password Manager Based on Bitwarden

Project Description:

The client approached us with the need for secure storage and shared usage of credentials by employees, without dependence on third-party cloud services. SVC Service proposed a solution involving the deployment of the free Bitwarden password manager on a dedicated virtual server in the Hetzner infrastructure.

Implemented Tasks:

• Selected and deployed a virtual server in Hetzner.
• Installed the Ubuntu Server operating system.
• Configured the Docker environment for isolated and secure service deployment.
• Deployed Bitwarden in Docker containers.
• Configured a web server for service access.
• Issued and automated SSL certificates via Let's Encrypt.
• Ensured secure HTTPS access to the password manager.
• Performed basic server hardening configuration.

Tools Used:

• Bitwarden (self-hosted)
• Ubuntu Server
• Docker / Docker Compose
• Hetzner Cloud
• Web server
• Let's Encrypt

Project Results:

• The client obtained a fully controlled password manager with no subscription fees.
• Data is stored exclusively on the client's own server.
• Enhanced the level of information security within the company.
• Simplified access management for employees.
• The solution is easily scalable and updatable.
