I'm thinking if someone hack my master password in netdisk and get everything leaked
Can 1p read part of saved password in device/pc/mac and request to enter the other part of password and us them together as master password

e.g
password saved on each device: $%^&(&)(&FUVDFSW&YTFFD (must be carefully saved)
password to be enter everytime: 123
combined password: $%^&(
&)(&FUVDFSW&YTFFD123

In this case, anyone get the db will be difficult to hack the master password.

    Hi @xuboying,

    I have great news for you! You have pretty much described how 1Password Teams works using your Master Password and your Account Key! Your need both of them to be able to decrypt your data, the Account Key is stored on the devices that you've set up while you need to enter your Master Password every time you want to access your data. You can read everything about it here: https://support.1password.com/understanding-account-key/#better-than-two-factor

    Please let us know if you have any other questions or if there's anything else that we can help you with :chuffed:
