This is why I use 1password and not LastPass - the encrypted password file is stored locally - optionally in Dropbox, which is what enables moble and remote (http online through Dropbox) to work.
Works excellently!
- latortuga 14y agoLastPass encrypts your passwords using your master password as (at least part of) the key. This means that they do decryption of passwords client-side as well. The entire password file is not stored locally but they had an intrusion of some sort a number of months back which demonstrated that they have a pretty good system set up along with quite a bit of monitoring. Truecrypt in dropbox is obviously a good choice if you're super paranoid but after seeing LastPass respond to security really well and it having an overall pretty simple UX, I don't have any reason to not recommend it.

- Splines 14y agoI use KeePass right now synced with Dropbox - what keeps me up at night is the fact that if the bad guys got my password file today, there could turn out to be a vulnerability in it discovered years from now that could allow them to get my password.
