Architecture

1Password’s production architecture is centered on a zero-knowledge, end-to-end encrypted vault service, where plaintext is encrypted on the client before reaching 1Password’s servers. Publicly available sources confirm hybrid cloud deployment patterns for components such as the SCIM bridge, but they do not reliably expose the company’s full internal database stack or all backend infrastructure details.

Architecture

Core security products (Strata NGFW, VM-Series, CN-Series) and services (WildFire, Prisma Access, GlobalProtect) run a proprietary PAN-OS/SP3 single-pass parallel processing architecture that is deployed across on-prem appliances and major public clouds, with cloud-delivered security services and management layers operating on GCP and other hyperscalers.[3][4][7] Data and telemetry are stored in a mix of cloud-native databases and proprietary stores to support threat intelligence, logging, and analytics.
