The vault is encrypted client-side with AES-256 in CBC mode plus HMAC-SHA256 — an encrypt-then-MAC construction, so tampering with the ciphertext is detectable. The key is derived from the master password with Argon2d (3 iterations, 32 MB memory, 2 threads); PBKDF2 remains only as a backward-compatibility fallback that Dashlane says it will deprecate in 2026. All vault fields are encrypted, including usernames, item URLs and notes — not just passwords. Support for legacy CBC-only mode was removed in November 2025.

The vault is encrypted client-side with AES-256 using a key derived from the Master Password via PBKDF2 with SHA-256 and a random 32-byte salt, at 1,000,000 iterations by default — the same order of magnitude as the highest iteration counts in this category, though PBKDF2 remains a non-memory-hard KDF unlike Argon2. Only a one-way, server-side password derived from the Master Password is ever sent to RoboForm's servers; all encryption and decryption happens locally.

The product is run by Dashlane, Inc.; the brand and trademarks belong to Dashlane SAS, France. The company is independent and venture-backed — it has raised over $200M across five rounds, the last a $110M Series D led by Sequoia Capital in May 2019, with Bessemer Venture Partners, FirstMark Capital and Rho as earlier backers. It has not been acquired. Dual headquarters in New York and Paris.

Privately held and independently operated since RoboForm's original 2000 release; not venture-backed and never acquired. Headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia, led by CEO Vadim Maslov. Siber Systems also makes GoodSync, a file-synchronization product, alongside RoboForm.
