LastPass is best experienced through your browser extension. Install LastPass for Firefox to automatically login to sites as you browse the web.
To validate your multifactor token, multifactor authentication requires that you have an Internet connection: if you do not pass us a correct multifactor token, LastPass will never release your encrypted data. However, LastPass also has an 'offline mode': it keeps a locally cached encrypted copy of your data on your local device so that you'll still be able to access your data even in the event that you do not have Internet access. When you log in to LastPass we first log you in offline to the locally cached copy of your data and then try to log you in online. As a result, you might experience cases where LastPass fills in credentials before you provide us your LastPass multifactor token. If you want to prevent this behavior, you can take the following steps:

Most modern anti-virus programs today rely on a trust network to determine if a file represents a threat. As a result, despite signing all executable files we distribute using a digital certificate, every time we release a new version of our software it typically results in anti-virus programs flagging it as suspicious until it is distributed to thousands of users and/or until end users update their virus definitions. If you encounter this issue, the please follow the following steps:
As soon as a password leaves LastPass and gets filled as credentials in a browser, we can no longer protect it. As such, if a user uses LastPass to enter a shared password in, say, Google Chrome -- we can no longer guarantee its safety. It might be compromised by the browser, by a virus, or by the network, or even by the end website they are being sent to. This is also mentioned in our documentation.
The idea to use LastPass to protect shared credentials is much more broad: if you use LastPass to share passwords with employees or friends, and thereafter revoke the credentials, LastPass gives you the ability to thereafter quickly and easily update that password. So while we can't protect shared credentials fully outside LastPass (because our reach does not extend to or past the browser), we can help secure them by allowing you to change them quickly and then have that change automatically propagate to everyone else you shared with.
