LastPass

A cloud-based password security site, LastPass suffered a data security breach that compromised the account email addresses, password reminders, server per user salts, and authentication hashes.

LastPass recommended its users to update their weak master passwords as a preventive step.

LastPass servers were even over-loaded and many people were displayed the message: "Oops! Our servers are a bit overloaded right now. Please try your password change again shortly, we will catch up soon."
