LastPass - What if I Don’t Want a LastPass Enterprise Account? Or What if I am Ineligible for a LastPass Enterprise Account?

1Password is replacing LastPass as UW-Madison's supported Password Manager. 1Password was selected for its intuitive user-friendly interface, robust set of features, and excellent track record in safeguarding sensitive data.
Current LastPass users are being invited to 1Password starting in December 2024. LastPass will remain active until May 2025. For more information and updates, refer to the transition FAQ: 1Password - LastPass Transition FAQs


LastPass usage is voluntary, but Password Managers are always recommended

LastPass Enterprise is an opt-in service. You are not required to have a LastPass Enterprise account. However, the Office of Cybersecurity recommends the use of any Password Manager as part of improving existing password practices. Therefore, if you don’t want to/can’t use a LastPass Enterprise account, we urge you to consider using a free LastPass Premium account or another comparable option.
