New Integration Provides Effortless Password Security for Employees by Removing the Need to Create or Remember a Separate Master Password

LastPass by LogMeIn, a leader in password management, announced a new integration with Microsoft’s Active Directory Federation Services (“ADFS”), providing organizations utilizing Microsoft ADFS with the ability to allow employees to access LastPass with their Active Directory (“AD”) credentials. Maintaining the LastPass zero-knowledge security model, this patent-pending security architecture ensures the user’s AD credentials are never exposed to LastPass while providing employees a true single sign-on experience. As a result, with federated login, the user’s AD identity becomes securely linked with their LastPass identity.
