We started out as purely local (and supporting using handling their own synching via a third party such as Dropbox). Many of the differences between how 1Password works and (my limited understanding of) how LastPass works arise from our very different histories. I have not carefully analyzed LastPass's behavior. Everything I might say about them could be mistaken. (See further below for where web-apps are used in perhaps surprising places.)

The most serious flaws, allowing the encryption to be subverted, have now been fixed.

I came across this blog post in which the author discusses a vulnerability in the LastPass.
