[QUOTE="R2D2, post: 1016876, member: 64945"] Well, yes, arguably so because of the additional key authentication other than the master password and TOTP authentication. But then Lastpass is/was secure too at least encryption wise till hackers got into their backend or storage systems and copied customer data which regrettably includes my data and that of my family members. Yes, we all use strong passwords and TOTP/2FA to secure our accounts other than location based access which is a moot point if hackers get into the storage, a potential smorgasbord of info related to LP users, instead of trying to hack my single run-of-the-mill low value family account via the UI or website. TBH I am not more confident about 1PW or BW staff being more resistant to phishing or other attacks than Lastpass staffers. None of these companies have assured us they follow better or more stringent best practices than LP ever did that in turn will ensure, at least with a reasonable degree of confidence, that they are less prone to break-in than LP is/was. At this point in time I am a bit concerned about my data on the net and actively looking at using PMs that offer local sync. The family and I would be a bit safer that way. [/QUOTE]
