Disaster... More than half a billion passwords for Facebook Google and Hotmail accounts leaked, Hurry up to check if your account is from them

Security Bugs Are Everywhere

A Small Mistake Can Cause A Big Problem

Small Mistake In The System Of A Large Company Can Leak The Accounts Of Billions Of Users, And This Is What Happened Some Time Ago, When A New Security Breach Of More Than Half A Billion Passwords Linked To Facebook, Google and Hotmail Accounts Was Exposed.


Troy Hunt Founder Of “I Have Been Pwned” Specialist in verifying passwords and hacked personal accounts Said In A Post That He Received from the National Crime Prevention Agency, A Set Of More Than 585 Million Passwords Hacked, Of Which 225 Million Were New And Previously Unknown Passwords.

Moreover, Passwords Have Been Added To A Section Of The Site Called “Have I Been Pwned”, This Site Allows Companies And System Administrators To Check And See If Their Passwords Have Been Hacked.

 Adding On, The Hacked Passwords Were Found In The Account Of Unknown Criminals On A Cloud Storage Service In The United Kingdom, According to The British Anti Crime Agency.

Which Means The Leak Is So Much Bigger. Eventually, Most Of Us Should Have To Change All Important Passwords, Especially Those Associated With e-mail, As It Is The Basis Through Which You Can Recover Stolen Accounts.
