World's biggest password manager suffers data breach

Password manager LastPass has suffered another data breach where an unauthorised party gained access to customer information, the company revealed in a blog post.

LastPass says it detected unusual activity on a third-party cloud storage service, adding that it has alerted law enforcement and is investigating the breach.

This has never made sense to me, anything can be hacked people, why give all your passwords together on a silver platter?

I don't use LastPass but I do use Keychain. If Apple gets hacked, they can take my money since there'll be nothing left to buy.

I use LastPass. My most important passwords like email and bank aren't stored anywhere however.

Can Highly recommend 1Password to those who are considering a password manager or an alternative to others. Bitwarden is also great, but found 1Password to have better support, apps and reliability.

Has google password manager ever been hacked ? I am not talking about individual accounts when users are careless to use it in cybercafe etc..

Oh no, I am so surprised. My eyebrows reached orbit and my jaw has rugburn.

Hopefully not one that stores it in the cloud. Or that cannot secure its own source code.

You don't. All they get is an encrypted blob.

If passwords were not compromised, what did the hackers actually get?
