A major data breach at password manager firm LastPass in 2022 is still causing mayhem two years later, with cyber criminals using stolen information to carry out further attacks. According to data collated by crypto investigator ZachXBT, hackers stole $12.38 million in cryptocurrency from LastPass users on 16 and 17 December. The attackers drained nearly 150 individual victim addresses, according to the analysis, with ZachXBT noting the stolen money was quickly converted into different currencies and syphoned away.
