Updated February 2026 โข 8 min read
LastPass suffered catastrophic security breaches in 2022-2023 โ encrypted vaults were stolen, and at least $35M in cryptocurrency has been stolen from users whose master passwords were cracked. If you're still on LastPass, it's time to leave. Here's how to do it safely.
๐จ The LastPass Breach Timeline
- Aug 2022: Attacker accessed developer environment via compromised employee laptop
- Dec 2022: LastPass revealed encrypted vault data was stolen
- 2023-2024: $35M+ in crypto thefts linked to cracked LastPass vaults
- Ongoing: Old vaults with weak master passwords remain at risk โ brute-force attacks continue
LastPass Pricing
- Free: One device type only (desktop OR mobile)
- Premium: $3/month ($36/year) โ all devices + dark web monitoring
- Families: $4/month ($48/year) โ 6 users
- Business: $7/user/month
Step 1: Export Your Vault
- Log in to lastpass.com
- Go to Account Settings โ Advanced โ Export
- Choose CSV format
- Enter your master password
- Save the file โ this file contains ALL your passwords in plain text
- Import into your new password manager immediately, then securely delete the CSV
๐ Security Warning
The exported CSV contains every password in plain text. Do NOT email it, upload it to cloud storage, or leave it on your desktop. Import it immediately into your new password manager, then securely delete it (empty trash after deletion).
Step 2: Set Up New Password Manager
- Bitwarden โ Free (unlimited passwords, all devices). Open-source. Has LastPass CSV importer. Best free option.
- 1Password โ $2.99/month. Best UX, Watchtower security alerts, Travel Mode. Has LastPass importer. Best paid option.

Step 3: Change Critical Passwords

- Email accounts (Gmail, Outlook โ these are recovery emails for everything else)
- Bank accounts and credit cards
- Crypto exchanges and wallets
- Any account with stored credit card info
- Social media with 2FA
Step 4: Cancel LastPass
