LastPass Review: The Password Manager That Lost 25 Million Vaults , The Complete LastPass Story

Описание: The 2022 LastPass breach exposed a systemic failure in endpoint security where a single unpatched home media server compromised the master decryption keys for 25.6 million users. While competitors like Bitwarden and 1Password maintain more aggressive security defaults, LastPass’s reliance on low PBKDF2 iteration counts allowed attackers to bypass encryption via offline brute-force attacks. This infrastructure collapse, accelerated by private equity-driven cost-cutting, resulted in the ongoing liquidation of customer cryptocurrency assets through 2025.
