Windows 11 Adds Native Support for Third-Party Passkeys

🔐 Microsoft has added native Windows 11 support for third-party passkey managers, beginning with 1Password and Bitwarden. Introduced in the November 2025 security update, the platform-level passkey API lets Windows generate a cryptographic key pair while storing the private key in the chosen manager, and uses Windows Hello (PIN or biometric) to verify logins. Microsoft also integrated its Microsoft Password Manager from Edge into Windows so users can pick their preferred manager. The change aims to improve portability, phishing resistance, and ease of passwordless authentication across devices.

LastPass: Phishing campaign impersonates product, warns users

🔒 LastPass has confirmed it was not breached after detecting a targeted phishing campaign that mimicked its branding. The emails used the subject line "We Have Been Hacked - Update Your LastPass Desktop App to Maintain Vault Security" and came from spoofed senders such as hello@lastpasspulse.blog and hello@lastpassgazette.blog. Links in the messages redirected recipients to phishing sites (lastpassdesktop.com and lastpassgazette.blog), and attackers have also registered lastpassdesktop.app for potential follow-ups. Cloudflare is displaying warnings and LastPass said it is working to have the malicious domains taken down.

Phishers Exploit 1Password Watchtower to Steal Vaults

🔒 Malwarebytes has flagged a phishing campaign that impersonated 1Password’s Watchtower breach alerts, nearly tricking an employee into surrendering their vault credentials. The message used authentic branding, familiar phrasing and urgency cues, and embedded legitimate-seeming support links before redirecting victims via Mandrill to a typosquatted credential‑stealing page. By Oct. 2 multiple vendors had marked the site as phishing and Mandrill blocked the redirect, but earlier clicks may already have exposed entire vaults.
