Is it true that password managers can be breached, as the 2022 LastPass breach exposed customers' encrypted vaults?
Yes. A peer-reviewed 2023 article states that LastPass suffered 2022 cyberattacks that breached customer data and encrypted passwords, with all customer vaults compromised. Other sources only show password managers carry some risk or can be attacked in general.
