Keeping company data safe means adopting cyber-aware habits across business and personal accounts alike, especially when employees increasingly access work data from personal devices. Facilitating better password hygiene at work and home is an easy way to protect your business from cyber threats.
With the purchase of LastPass Business, you can now provide a security perk to your workforce with Families as a Benefit. LastPass Families as a Benefit enables your employees – and their families – to live and work securely, from anywhere.
When 85% of data breaches involve phishing, stolen credentials, or human error, employees often unknowingly put the company at risk with poor personal password behaviors. It might be because of password reuse across work and personal accounts or weak passwords that give attackers a foothold on a device with company data. Whatever the reason, poor password hygiene is equally damaging at home and work. Plus, employees may not realize how identity theft and cyber threats can impact them and their families outside of work. LastPass Families as a Benefit helps them take steps to keep their family safe and holistically protect their digital life.
With Families as a Benefit, your employees will receive a personal LastPass account, plus five additional licenses to share with family or friends. By setting up their own personal LastPass account, each family member has a safe place to store all of their most sensitive credentials. Family members can share any logins that more than one person needs to access, while all other passwords remain separate and private. Users and their family's personal account data will never be accessible to employers. Likewise, Families members will never be able to access your business data or your employee’s business account.
With LastPass Families, your employee 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 password score.
- Receive alerts when their family’s data is compromised through 24/7 dark web monitoring.
- Create a digital contingency plan for their family’s most important digital assets.
If you leave your current employer, your LastPass Families account travels with you wherever you go. You’ll have the option to purchase your LastPass Families account. If you choose not to, you and your family members will be moved to LastPass free, with no loss of credentials.
