Lastpass blocked by application filtering (Block high risk (Risk Level 4 and 5) apps)

Hi Sophos Community,

I was wondering for a while why some of our customers couldn't reach the Lastpass website. Now I have discovered that its being blocked by application filtering with filter "Block high risk (Risk Level 4 and 5) apps". I am aware that I can simply allow Lastpass in the application filtering policy, but I was wondering why Lastpass is listed in this list in the first place? Are there any risks to using Lastpass that I am unaware of?

Also, now that I am diving deeper into this issue, I'm noticing that the applied filter is supposed to block Risk Level 4 and 5 but it does include Lastpass which is risk level 1 that seems odd....

Not sure if I should ask this question on a community post or a support case but I thought I would try the community first.

  • Just checked this on my v19.5GA machine. Lastpass is not part of the filter.

  • Ah I see I just checked my own machine running v19 MR1 build 365 and its not there either. Still not sure why they decided to include Lastpass in a filter for risk lever 4 and 5 maybe it's what Lucar Toni mentioned about security breach(es). Well, I'm going to close this post.
