Are the Dominoes Starting to Fall After Historic Bounty of User Credentials Stolen?
PRWeb - Sat Sep 06, 3:01AM CDT
It's been a crazy run on the cyber front in the last couple of weeks, big name banks came forward about being hacked, a slew of celebrities had their private photos exposed for the world to see, and another huge US retailer, Home Depot, is investigating a potentially massive breach which may have exposed the credit card numbers of millions of customers. But on the edge of that cluttered radar, there was a brute force attack on hosting provider Namecheap which didn't garner as much attention, even though it may have been the first real domino to fall in the aftermath of the biggest compromise of user credentials ever, tallying 1.2 billion plus according to a report in The New York Times last month on August 5th. "IT security departments and professionals should take notice," says Joe Caruso, founder and CEO/CTO of Global Digital Forensics (GDF), a premier provider of cyber security solutions, "because this is a show that could be coming soon to a network near you."
