Dashlane Brute-Force Attack Leads to Limited Encrypted Vault Downloads
Dashlane said it was targeted in a brute-force campaign that tried to guess 2FA codes and register attacker-controlled devices on user accounts. Fewer than 20 personal plan users had encrypted vault copies downloaded, but the company said the vaults remain protected without the Master Password and there is no evidence its internal systems were affected. #Dashlane #TwoFactorAuthentication
