Yahoo discloses hack of 1 billion accounts

Posted on: 16/Dec/2016 12:59:23 PM
Yahoo has mentioned that it believes hackers stole data from more than one billion user accounts in August 2013.
 
The 2013 attack involved sensitive user information, including names, telephone numbers, dates of birth, encrypted passwords, and unencrypted security questions that could be used to reset a password.
 
Yahoo said it is forcing all of the affected users to change their passwords and invalidating unencrypted security questions - steps that it declined to take in September.
