> A hacker stole a file from password manager LastPass that contained the passwords of 30 million users and 85,000 companies.
> As long as customers had a good master password, their passwords were safe, the company said.
> Unlike what many users thought, their personal password vault was not a fully encrypted folder but a text document with a few encrypted fields, according to FTM. FTM also pointed out that by still claiming that the passwords are safe if people used a good master password, LastPass is shifting the responsibility to its users.
