Dashlane suspends user accounts as precaution against brute-force attacks

Summary

Password manager Dashlane temporarily suspended multiple user accounts as a precautionary measure following a series of brute-force attacks. The company sent emails to affected users explaining that their accounts were locked due to repeated failed login attempts from new devices. Dashlane did not disclose the scale of the attack, but numerous users reported receiving suspension notices. Affected users are instructed to contact customer support to restore access. The automatic security protections activated over the weekend, disrupting engineers' time off.
