User email addresses, master password reminders and authentication hashes and user salts were exposed. LastPass is still rebuilding its reputation with the community after a security hack in 2015. Even without that additional feature, we have to hand the win to Dashlane for one distinct reason: The company has never been breached. If you have multiple authenticators in play, Dashlane will only use the one that’s the highest priority. WINNER: Dashlaneĭashlane only allows two-factor authentication, which it says is for security reasons. LastPass offers more flexibility in its authentication features, allowing you to combine multiple authenticators - like Face ID, fingerprint scanners, YubiKey, authenticator apps and more - to have several layers of security.
LastPass has an edge over Dashlane due to its frequent audits by other companies and its multi-factor authentication (MFA). Security Differences Between LastPass and Dashlane

If either company’s servers were hacked, no one could gain access to your master password, and they wouldn’t be able to break into your password vault. The keys for your master password to unlock your vault are locally encrypted on your own device, so Dashlane and LastPass never store it on company servers. We love seeing zero-knowledge security models for both companies.
