The problem is a password manager becomes such a valuable target. Sure, they have more security resources given the nature of their business, but it's that password management company's security staff versus a world's-sized quantity of potential bad actors, and one of those two groups has more resources than the other.
- stormbeta 6y agoExactly. I felt a lot safer using something like KeePass, and synchronizing the encrypted database using something like Dropbox. There's not a central target that would get caught up in large scale attacks aside from Dropbox itself - and even if they get access to that somehow, they'd then have to care about me specifically enough to run expensive offline attacks on the encrypted database. Anyone targeting me directly with those kinds of resources already has better avenues of attack.
