LastPass Data Breach Settlement 2026 -- Your Passwords Leaked, Now File a Claim by July 2
LastPass agreed to an $8.2M settlement after hackers helped themselves to user vault data in 2022. Claim up to $10,000 by July 2, 2026.
What happened
Class period: August 1, 2022 through November 2022
Between August and November 2022, a cybercriminal attacked LastPass's systems and walked off with both encrypted and unencrypted backup data from the company's cloud storage. The app whose entire job was keeping your passwords safe had a bad year.
Starting in December 2022, affected users filed class action lawsuits that were consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. LastPass denies wrongdoing but agreed to an $8.2 million settlement fund, plus a separate $16.25 million Crypto Pool for users claiming cryptocurrency losses tied to the breach.
