BSA Blog Service Announcement - Taking A Leak
|
BSA Blog Service Announcement - Taking A Leak By now I imagine you’ve read that the site(s) were compromised in October. It has been posted about on these blogs and numerous online media have written about it (CNN Money and Forbes to name a couple). There are also a number of techie sites that have a report on this. The type of data exposed was: passwords, email addresses, user language data, and site membership numbers. It is being called one of the largest infiltrations in online history.  If you go to a place named Leaked Source (one word) com you will find a sampling of what info was available when the site(s) were compromised in October. It is somewhat interesting. Below is one sample of the compromised data that was put into a chart. I’m showing only 12 of the most common passwords the Leaked site posted, there are 75 of them.  FWIW, people be smart and try to use better passwords for your own protection. If you’re interested I will post up more of what that site found. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. |

I work in IT & have no problem believing that many people use those passwords. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I was watching a program last night about how easy it is to hack any internet user...corporate or personal. It is really up to each individual to be very careful about passwords and companies should be super vigilant with their users data. Sadly this place isn't super vigilant about anything.  I would imagine the program mentioned that the "H-word" people are constantly trying to outwit the latest security measures. To some it is a challenge. That being the case the inter/web/nets can never really be completely secure. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

It really baffles me why so many people have used the simplest of passwords here   When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Well my password isnt on the list YET!! I keep my passwords in an address book by name of place . I do not ever have two places with the same password. And as I posted before I will not use my points for gold because they want way too much personal data to approve use of the points When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

That seems like a simple plan except, where are you going to find a virgin on a sex site?  When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

The way I understood the article all passwords were taken. They just posted the 75 most common ones. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I wonder how many people are trying to use some of those passwords to get into other peoples accounts.  When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

What they hacked are the passwords the site uses for all of tje fake profiles they post on here.Do you really think someone is going to use 123456?in second though Thats what your example is telling me.Just how the site uses sumple passwords yo fool people!

For most in the workplace, there are password rules. And yes, I have been at some places that had some really wonky-ones (cannot use the same character in the same place when changing passwords; cannot use consecutive numbers; cannot use words found in dictionary; etc.). But no real password rules here. Nope. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Zero measures from what the article suggested.  When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

....note to self...change password from 12345 to....maybe 54321. . (Just kidding) , so you're good. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

it's frustrating It is but unfortunately necessary. Unless you write it down in some sort of paper notebook, how else will you remember? Mine are on a sheet on my wall  When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
