NEW YORK (AP) – Hackers have gained access to OneLogin, an online password manager that offers a single sign-on to multiple websites and services.

OneLogin disclosed the hack in a blog post but didn’t specify the data accessed in the breach.

Published reports, however, say OneLogin informed customers that the hackers appeared to have gotten a way to access encrypted data. Passwords are typically stored that way.

OneLogin didn’t immediately respond to an inquiry.

Password managers help people keep track of passwords for a growing array of websites and services that require one. Instead of having to remember complex passwords for each one, people can just remember a master password. The password service then unlocks other accounts as needed.
