LastPass does NOT require you to install a binary component. That's an optional you have to access the vault on your desktop.
OnePassword on the other hand, highly encourages people to download the binary because their standard extension connects to it.
- amarshall 8y agoIt also requires you to install the binary extension to use the file attachments feature.
- danieldk 8y agoThey also have an extension (which is the default version on Linux/Chromebooks) that does not require the 1Password application. I have used it since the betas in Linux and it works nicely. Also, this thread seems to imply that having a binary component is always bad. It can also increase security. If the extension is rate-limited in retrieving passwords from a vault, then a compromised browser can only extract a limited number of passwords, whereas with a browser-native extension the attacker could extract all passwords.
