LastPass has suffered its second security breach in just a few months as hackers made off with data, but luckily user passwords are safe and encrypted.
The developers behind password management software LastPass have just shared some concerning news: bad actors were recently able to access “elements of our customers’ information” in a recent security breach.
For those unfamiliar with that episode, hackers managed to access and steal parts of LastPass’s source code. While the company said no customer data was stolen at the time, it appears the source code allowed the hackers access to private information this time around. Your passwords are safe Fortunately, there is some good news: customer passwords appear to be safe and remain fully encrypted. That’s thanks to LastPass’s Zero Knowledge structure, which basically means that only you have access to your master password and any data stored inside your vault — not even LastPass’s developers can access it. With that kind of firewalling in place, the hackers were unable to steal any passwords or vital account data.
