Arcadia Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 “Yahoo has said that all of its three billion user accounts were affected in a hacking attack dating back to 2013. The company, which was taken over by Verizon earlier this year, said an investigation had shown the breach went much further than originally thought. The stolen data did not include passwords in clear text, payment card or bank account data, it added. Previously the internet giant had said "more than one billion" of its accounts had been hit.“ http://www.bbc.com/news/business-41493494 “Verizon revised the number of breached accounts to three billion after receiving new information. "The company recently obtained new intelligence and now believes, following an investigation with the assistance of outside forensic experts, that all Yahoo user accounts were affected by the August 2013 theft," Verizon said in a statement. Verizon would not provide any information about who the outside forensics experts are.†http://money.cnn.com/2017/10/03/technology/business/yahoo-breach-3-billion-accounts/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
