The breached vaults belonged to users whose passphrases fell below the service’s recommended complexity. No evidence suggests the data was sold or further disseminated.\n\nThe incident spotlights the limits of brute‑force defenses in password‑manager services, especially when users choose short or predictable master passwords. It also forces enterprises to rethink mandatory complexity rules for privileged accounts.\n\nEven a well‑known vault isn’t immune if you treat the master password like a weak door lock.","[\"security\",\"password-managers\",\"dashlane\"]","2026-06-02T19:38:08.000Z","2026-06-02T20:42:23.570Z","2026-06-05T16:22:29.546Z","published",null,[],[25,26,27],"security","password-managers","dashlane",[29],{"name":30,"url":31},"Engadget","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.engadget.com\u002F2186075\u002Fdashlane-says-hackers-stole-password-vaults-via-a-brute-force-attack\u002F",0]
