On May 31, 2026, Dashlane disclosed that an external brute-force account attack led to encrypted vaults being downloaded for fewer than 20 personal-plan users, creating a limited but concrete exposure of sensitive stored data. The attack attempted to bypass 2FA and add new devices to existing accounts. Dashlane said affected users were notified and that vault contents still depend on the Master Password for access.
