The well-known Lynda.com site with incredible online tutorials is hacked. The attackers managed to break a database containing information from users and lessons.
According to the company, about 55.000 registered users of the platform are affected.
Lynda.com, a LinkedIn subsidiary, Microsoft recently bought, has confirmed the hack and has already begun resetting passwords for 55.000 accounts that have been intercepted.
In addition, the service sends emails to 9,5 millions of registered users to inform them of the violation even though their data did not exist in the hacked database.
In the leaked data there are no credit card data according to the company, and all the codes were sufficiently encrypted, soaked and hashed.
If you were using Lynda.cоm, you should immediately reset your password, whether or not it has been intercepted.
George is still wondering what he is doing here….
