Why did we transition from LastPass to Keeper?

After several LastPass data breaches of encrypted customer password vaults, Library and Technology Services suspended new Lehigh LastPass enrollment on January 3rd, 2023. To improve our security posture, we switched to Keeper, a robust Password manager.


Getting started 

Keeper has both a desktop and mobile app. Additionally, it offers a browser extension called KeeperFill for use on the web. The desktop application allows you to easily transfer vaults from LastPass without the need to import/export CSV files.
