Russia gang hacks 1.2 billion usernames and passwords!

A Russian group has hacked 1.2 billion usernames and passwords belonging to more than 500 million email addresses, according to Hold Security - a US firm specialising in discovering breaches.

Hold Security described the hack as the "largest data breach known to date".

It claimed the stolen information came from more than 420,000 websites, including "many leaders in virtually all industries across the world".

Hold Security did not give details of the companies affected by the hack.

"They didn't just target large companies; instead, they targeted every site that their victims visited," Hold Security said in its report.


What the report?

YOU HAVE BEEN HACKED!
The New York Times, which first reported the findings, said that on its request "a security expert not affiliated with Hold Security analysed the database of stolen credentials and confirmed it was authentic". 

"Another computer crime expert who had reviewed the data, but was not allowed to discuss it publicly, said some big companies were aware that their records were among the stolen information," the paper said.

The paper added: "Hold Security would not name the victims, citing nondisclosure agreements and a reluctance to name companies whose sites remained vulnerable."

The Wall Street Journal later revealed that Hold Security intended to offer website owners the ability to check whether they had been affected, but only if they paid a fee.

The firm initially posted a message on its site saying it would charge $120 (£71) a month for the "breach notification service", however the details have since been replaced with a message saying "coming soon!".

One computer security expert said he was surprised by this approach.

"This situation is quite unusual in that the company has decided to charge for this information," Dr Steven Murdoch from the University of Cambridge's computer laboratory told the BBC.

Koks keistas įtartinas Dr Steven Murdoch from the University of Cambridge's computer laboratory!
