What if this tweet was provided as "evidence" of the opposite claim:
> I think the situation at @LastPass may be better than they are letting on.
>
> On Sunday the 18th, four of my wallets were completely safe. There were no losses.
>
> Their seeds were kept, encrypted, in my lastpass vault, behind a 16 character password using all character types.
IOW, the honesty and integrity of the user does not matter. What matters is some form of verification of the cause of a breach, because this single post presents no useful evidence for determining the cause of the breach, most especially ruling out over-the-shoulder attacks.
What has confounded me for a long time is this question: are there no breaches of security cameras? I can spend time in a Starbucks and always see someone enter a password into some device, I do not recall reading that a security camera system has been hacked, yet I would assign an incredibly high value to security cameras in places like coffee shops, airports, hotel lobbies, etc.
Being unable to prove there was not a breach is correct because you are unable to prove there was a breach, meaning there is no useful evidence in the post.
As I demonstrated in what might be called talking past the sale, there are other attacks that have nothing to do with the security of the technologies used.
I don't know the person who originally stated this, but as the popular refrain goes: "security is a process, not a technology."
