If your company finds out (and they will) you’ll get fired so fast you wouldn’t even know what hit you. Never fuck around with licenses when they are provided to you by an employer. Some formats have metadata that gets saved, some companies do audits etc.
Quite a few products allow for this home use. Aids with training, familiarisation and locking users into their ecosystem. I’ve been able to do this a few times to help learn complex programs.
Completely legit with Adobe as far as I’m aware - since there is only the one licence available via online check-in so can’t be used on more than one at a time.
Autodesk is similar - used to have an allowance for a training/home use licence (may have been extra), even the common Office 365 corp licence allows for up to 5 installations and doesn’t really care where you install it.
Corp data on a home device or using your own gear for WFH is another story though.
Yeah, but not Lastpass. And I wouldn’t use the same password manager’s account for work AND home. I use BitWarden at home. My work switched to 1pass after Lastpass was breached.
I don’t know about LastPass but 1Password has the same deal and they aren’t tied to eachother, it’s not an account you create under their tenant it’s just a link you can generate that makes the 1Password for Families plan free on your account as long as your employer is paying for the corporate one.
Yeah I mean do whatever you want I just wanted to clarify that they aren’t linked in any way other than the cost, it’s not like your employer can manage your personal account.

I’m not understanding why anyone would use their corporate license on a personal computer in the first place.

Yeah, that’s already iffy, never do personal stuff on work computer and vice versea.
My org got Lastpass, and they’re like “you can use it on your home computer too!”
Yeah absolutely not doing that.
Then the data breach happened. Very happy I didn’t do that!
You should use password managers. It doesn’t matter where you get your “key” from. Worried about cloud, there is always keepass.

Nahhhh I’ll just use fully separate things. BitWarden works great
Even if it’s a separate thing there a data link SOMEWHERE that says Rai-at-work also buys a lotta shit from Bad Dragon
