Klue Supply Chain Incident & LastPass Response - The LastPass Blog

LastPass wants to inform our customers of a security incident which recently occurred at one of our third-party suppliers and how that incident impacts LastPass and our customers.

@mkristensson True.

However, some megacorps are extending passkeys to allow for sharing and moving keys. Unfortunately, you lose the phishing protection with that as well.

So yes, some passkeys setups aren't protection against phishing any more. 😞

Therefore, I use user/password + #FIDO2 hardware token when it *really* needs to be secure and #TOTP for the rest.

Even with passkeys, FIDO2 hardware tokens don't support those convenience features where #passkeys lose #phishing protection.

This summer, another EU-proposal for chatcontrol is expected to be made, this time by Cyprus. We'll have to again make a lot of fuss about it, and can expect to have to stay vigilant, and keep opposing attempts by poorly informed politicians to throw away our privacy and security.
