20 Nov 2025 LastPass UK LtdICO: £1.2 million against LastPass UK after breach of backup database United KingdomData breaches and data security €1.39m

In 2022, an attacker first compromised an employee's company laptop and then the personal laptop of a senior employee, whose master password he captured using a keylogger. Because the personal and business password vaults were linked via the same master password, he obtained the access and decryption keys stored there and stole data on up to 1.6 million UK users from the backup database.

What organisations can take from it

Never keep critical keys on employees' personal devices or in their personal accounts – access must be technically separated and restricted.

Relevance to training and awareness
