Still, you're going to take the company's word for it? I'm not. 'As a reminder, the master password is never known to LastPass and is not stored or maintained by LastPass.' 'These encrypted fields remain secured with 256-bit AES encryption and can only be decrypted with a unique encryption key derived from each user’s master password using our Zero Knowledge architecture,' Toubba said. However, some of the app's source code was lifted and then used to spearphish a Lastpass employee into giving up their access credentials, then used those keys to decrypt and copy off, 'some storage volumes within the cloud-based storage service.'Īmong the encrypted data obtained by the hackers included basic customer account information like company names, billing, email and IP addresses and telephone numbers, Toubba continued. 'No customer data was accessed during the August 2022 incident,' LastPass CEO Karim Toubba, explained. That means the thieves have people's entire collections of encrypted personal data, if not the immediate method to unlock them. After being hacked for the second time in as many years this August, password manager app Lastpass announced on Thursday the most recent intrusion was much more damaging than initially reported with the attackers having made off with users' password vaults in some cases.
