LastPass Password: A Review of its Security Incidents

In light of recent security breaches, we have decided to re-review LastPass, a popular password manager. Our earlier comparison of LastPass and Bitwarden was written prior to August 2022's security incident. If you're deciding between these two options, our recommendation is to choose Bitwarden or explore other alternatives from our list of the best password managers.

For those who are already subscribers to LastPass, we suggest taking a look at CNET's advice on what to do following the breach. Unfortunately, this latest security incident has significantly undermined LastPass's effectiveness as a privacy tool and consumer trust in the product.

To provide some context, LastPass revealed that an unauthorized party gained access to unencrypted user data and customer vaults containing sensitive information in December 2022. This development is particularly concerning given the company's lengthy history of security issues. As a result, we have decided to remove LastPass from our list of recommended password managers at this time.
