Q: LastPass is requiring me to encrypt my URLs, is this safe?
Answer
Yes, this is a security enhancement from LastPass. MIT community members who use LastPass with accounts created before August 5, 2024, will be prompted to use a Privacy Enhancement in LastPass that will encrypt URLs. This not any kind of fishing or other security exploit. Your LastPass experience will remain the same after taking this step, just with more security in the background to safeguard your data.
The prompt will look like the one below, and you can safely click, Encrypt URLs Now.
