However, the company confirmed that there was a security incident that happened recently. LastPass was hacked by a bad actor and the source code was stolen.<br \/>\nIt\u2019s not really a good thing to hear that the company managing your passwords was hacked. It\u2019s like hearing that the bank you put your life\u2019s savings in was robbed. The CEO of the company, Karim Toubba, sent a letter to all of its customers about the incident and summed up what happened.<br \/>\nLastpass was hacked through a developer account<br \/>\nIn the letter to its customers, the company pointed out some interesting points. The break happened about two weeks ago. As a result, LastPass employed a \u201cleading cybersecurity and forensics firm\u201d to help clean up the mess. We don\u2019t know what firm, however.<br \/>\nFrom the looks of it, a bad actor was able to break into LastPass through a compromised developer account. Being a developer, they, ostensibly, had some high-level access to the company\u2019s files. So, it makes sense that the attacker was able to use that account as a point of ingress.<br \/>\nShould you be worried?<br \/>\nBased on the letter, Toubba assured its users that the attacker was able to steal portions of the source code for the company along with some proprietary technical information. While this isn\u2019t great, Toubba said that the company doesn\u2019t expect that any user data was taken.<br \/>\nWhile the letter says this, this is still an ongoing investigation. At this point, the company could still be gathering information about the attack, so you\u2019ll want to keep an eye on what\u2019s going on. Stay on the lookout for any more updates from the company. Even if the letter doesn\u2019t point to any user data being stolen, it might be a wise idea to change your login information for your LastPass account.<br \/>\nThe post Attackers Broke Into LastPass And Stole Source Code appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Lastpass-broken-in.png\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LastPass is a leading password management service, and a ton of people trust it with their cybersecurity.
