I don't think so. They hacked the Lastpass servers exploiting some vul- |
| 11 |
nerability in some software running there ... Windows, Word, Excel, you |
| 12 |
name it. Maybe they too used the bug in SolarWinds' remote maintenance |
| 13 |
software, but then ... wasn't the Lastpass hack way earlier? |
