# Security for AI

AI tools and agents increasingly need credentials like API keys, tokens, and passwords to complete tasks. When you supply these secrets in plaintext, they can leak into LLM context, source control, or config files. 1Password gives you secure methods to use secrets in agentic workflows without exposing them in prompts, config files, or agent memory.
