Employee Benefits Just Got Better – and Bigger!

Employee Benefits Just Got Better – and Bigger!
Join the biggest and most inclusive family in password management – LastPass! LastPass Business now includes LastPass Families for all employees with a business account. With professional and personal lives merging at an unprecedented rate, it is crucial that information is easily accessible and completely secure across personal and business devices and applications. Even though 91% of people say they know using variations of the same password is risky, according to our 2020 Psychology of Passwords report, 66% still mostly use the same password or a variation. This can result in password fatigue, which leads to bad behavior like reusing the same password – both at work and at home.

What does Families as a Benefit mean for your business and your employees?

You can now provide a best-in-class password manager to your employees and their family when you purchase LastPass Business. However you or your employees define family, we’ve got you covered. With LastPass Families as a Benefit, your employees will be provided with a personal LastPass account plus 5 additional licenses to share with their family or friends. Strong password habits at home translate to better practices at work. And when employees have a LastPass account to generate, store, manage, and share both their work and personal credentials, there’s no excuse for poor password management. Employees can link their business and personal LastPass accounts for simple access, while keeping their credentials private in two separate vaults. Rest easy knowing your employees are practicing the same safe habits at home, increasing familiarity with proper password hygiene through LastPass, ultimately driving better utilization and engagement at work. With LastPass Families, your employees can:
  • Invite up to 5 additional family members or friends to join their LastPass Families account, granting each person their own unique LastPass account where they can store personal passwords and specify those meant for sharing with others, while keeping the rest private
  • Store and protect their entire family’s passwords across all devices
  • Share passwords with one-to-one or one-to-many sharing capabilities, with unlimited shared folders
  • Increase password hygiene by using the security dashboard to clearly see what passwords need updating based on your password strength score
  • Receive alerts when your data is compromised through 24/7 dark web monitoring – similarly, family members will get notified, too
  • Create a digital contingency plan for their family’s most important digital assets
By encouraging proper password hygiene personally, you’ll reap the benefits professionally.

What does Families as a Benefit mean for personal use?

At LastPass, we celebrate that no two families are alike, and whether your family includes spouses, significant others, parents, kids, distant relatives, friends, or roommates – they’re all part of what makes LastPass Families so special. Password managers are the safest way to keep track of passwords and protect individuals and families from cyber threats. Store everything from passwords to passports, and collaborate easily with the ability to access a shared Netflix account, log in to pay shared bills, and never be locked out of any personal or shared account again with LastPass Families. As the Family Manager, you can invite up to 5 additional family members or friends to join your LastPass Families account, granting each person their own unique LastPass account where they can generate, store, manage personal passwords and specify those meant for sharing with others, while keeping the rest private. Remember just one password for the rest of your life with LastPass and let us do the rest for you – and your family. Whether you choose to link your business or Families account or not – you’re in control.  You or your family’s personal account data will never be accessible to your employer. With our zero-knowledge security model no one knows your passwords, not even LastPass. Your LastPass Family offer is in your LastPass Business account, ready to be redeemed when you are. Simply log in to your business account to start. Claim your Families as a Benefit today... and welcome to the Family!
