***Fake LastPass Authenticator App***
You searched for a password app. You found a page with the right logo. You clicked download.
The malware said, “Thanks. I’ll take it from here.” 😬
Researchers found a fake LastPass Authenticator download on GitHub that appeared in search results. If someone ran it, the malware could shut down security software and steal saved credentials.
The everyday lesson: **a familiar logo and a high search ranking do not make a download official.** Start at the company’s website or an official app store, and double-check the address before installing.
If someone at your business already ran a suspicious installer, don’t just delete the download and call it fixed. Have the device checked, and change any saved passwords from a clean device.
