35 TopicsDid 1Password get hacked? The Disney Employee said hackers got into his 1password account.
Hey Folks, Decade+, happy 1password user here, however, my underpants clenched up when I read this on the WSJ today A Disney Worker Downloaded an AI Tool. It Led to a Hack That Ruined His Life. - WSJ At the heart of it, was them gaining access to his 1Password's. I didn't think folks could get access to your passwords without having the Secret Key you need in addition to the username/pw. Would love to hear from folks and 1Password (post-mortem/RCA), about what happened, and what we can do to secure our 1Password so this can't happen to us! I have just enabled 2FA for the first time, but it looks like you only need it to get updated PW's? and that you can still see the old ones. Scary!

When registering for an account here, the restrictions on passwords are 15 to 25 characters No part of the username however pasting nothing but the username, Bob, gets a check ✔️. I suspect that the validation code fails to understand character encoding. It's a tricky subject.21Views1like0CommentsRandom but Memorable 14.8: World Password Day Special

I just received this phishing email and thought I would share it with the community as a reminder to stay safe and always inspect before you click. I already forwarded the email to 1password (with headers) in addition to reporting it to the abuse email of the campaign service it came from. Not sure how they got ahold of the email though.Solved686Views1like3Comments
