Quote:
LastPass, the popular password management service, recently announced that it was hacked. Specifically, LastPass's CEO Karim Toubba wrote that an "unauthorized party gained access to portions of the LastPass development environment through a single compromised developer account and took portions of source code and some proprietary LastPass technical information."
This isn't the first time LastPass has had security problems. In 2021, it appeared that some users' LastPass Master Passwords may have been revealed. LastPass replied that it hadn't been breached, but users who had gotten emails warning them that an unknown person was trying to log into their accounts weren't convinced. Nevertheless, LastPass insisted that it was just the result of a credential stuffing attack.
In 2020, LastPass had a major outage, and users reported they couldn't log into their accounts or autofill passwords.
In 2019, a significant LastPass security problem was uncovered by security researchers as well.

Willie Sutton when asked why he robbed banks: "because that's where the money is". You gotta think that LastPass is a prime target of hackers because it is the bank of passwords.
