Lastpass breach. Code stolen. No user data taken

[GTP]

Interesting thoughts from Steve Gibson on a recent podcast about encryption.
A listener asked the question, "If I encrypt with a 256 bit key, then encrypt again with a 256 bit key, then do it a third time, does it make the encryption stronger?"
The answer was enlightening.
Not sure what episode it was but I'll go back and listen again at some stage.

New breach using info from the previous breach. Customer data accessed but passwords are secure because encryption works.

And my passwords are safe, no matter where they are, because they are stored in an encrypted vault.

Anyone who wants it, I'll be happy to send it to them. Good luck decrypting it!

Love this! Yea, I still love LastPass. They are great to work with. Plus, of course they have breaches. People want passwords.
