Title
A Security Analysis of Two Commercial Browser and Cloud Based Password Managers
Abstract
In this paper, we analyze the security of two very popular commercial password managers: Last Pass and Robo Form. Both of them are Browser and Cloud based Password Managers (BCPMs), and both of them have millions of active users worldwide. We investigate the security design and implementation of these two BCPMs with the focus on their underlying cryptographic mechanisms. We identify several vulnerabilities that could be exploited by outsider and insider attackers to break the security of these two BCPMs.
