Data belonging to 2,5 millions μέλη των δύο forums παιχνιδιών που έγιναν hacked το 2015 κυκλοφορούν ελεύθερα online. To 2015, δύο forums παιχνιδιών τα XBOX360 ISO και PSP ISO παραβιάστηκαν. Και τα δύο forum βοηθούσαν τους παίχτες να αποκτήσουν πρόσβαση σε παράνομα copies Xbox and PlayStation games.
According to available information, the PSP ISO was breached in September 2015, and they leaked σχεδόν 1,3 εκατομμύρια λογαριασμοί (email, hashed κωδικοί πρόσβασης και IP διευθύνσεις. Το forum Xbox 360 ISO παραβιάστηκε την ίδια περίπου χρονική περίοδο, εκθέτοντας 1,2 εκατομμύρια λογαριασμούς (email, διεύθυνση IP, hashes κωδικών πρόσβασης).
Of course no one knows who or who are behind the hack. However, the above information is available online, and it would be good if you had an account on the specific websites to change your passwords. You should also be especially careful in phishing attacks.
But we must say that in order to freely circulate the data, it probably will not be of any value to hackers who have probably already used the information. Moreover, it has been a long time since the violation and most users have already taken some precautionary measures.
Troy Hunt, founder of Have I Been Pwned, a site where you can enter your email address and find out if there is any information from hacked data lists, says that none of the leaked information was encrypted.
"Both forums used hashes (which are not encryption!) To store passwords, but they used a very weak algorithm making encryption almost useless."
