It hasn’t explained how the staffer’s account was compromised. While our investigation is ongoing, we have achieved a state of containment, implemented additional enhanced security measures, and see no further evidence of unauthorized activity. “In response to the incident, we have deployed containment and mitigation measures and engaged a leading cybersecurity and forensics firm. Our products and services are operating normally. “We have determined that an unauthorized party gained access to portions of the LastPass development environment through a single compromised developer account and took portions of source code and some proprietary LastPass technical information. “Two weeks ago we detected some unusual activity within portions of the LastPass development environment,” the Boston-based company said in its statement. The Bleeping Computer news service said the statement came after it asked the company for comment on Sunday, when insiders tipped it off. “After initiating an immediate investigation, we have seen no evidence that this incident involved any access to customer data or encrypted password vaults,” it added. Some proprietary information was also stolen, the company said Thursday. LastPass, a major password management provider, has acknowledged some of its source code was recently stolen after one of its developer accounts was hacked.
