Password manager blocked by protection blade

Today we found the checkpoint blade was blocking access to lastpass password manager and the lastpass URL.

Is there an identified issue which this is protecting?

I know that Application Control has LastPass marked as a High-risk application.

Perhaps that's blocking depending on your policy.

But you also didn't specify exactly what blade was blocking.

Can you post a screenshot from your logs showing the block?

If you think the block is in error, I recommend engaging with the TAC.

It was included in Application Control and URL filtering blade when some of the built in features were turned on, along with about 700 other applications and URLs which are listed as High Risk.

LastPass is marked high-risk because it can be used to store corporate data and corporate user credentials.

If you block high risk applications, you will need to add an explicit rule to permit it.

If #LastPass is being used in an enterprise setting, even just specific groups, I'd recommend the corporate setup route. LastPass Enterprise | Cloud Password Manager, Identity & Access Management Solution The security features are robust, extendable and constantly tested. Security | LastPass.
