Last Pass Data Breach-What to do next

LastPass Hacked

Password management service LastPass confirmed a security incident that occurred roughly two weeks ago and resulted in the theft of certain source code and proprietary technical information.

According to Spiceworks News & Insights:

“While customer data and passwords remain unaffected despite the break-in, LastPass said the hacker could steal the source code and other proprietary data, given the compromised account had access to the LastPass development environment.
