Billion hit by hack yahoo

- Yahoo announced Wednesday again has adopted a burglary at his computer. This cyber attack dates back to August 2013 and reached more than one billion accounts. Data from almost everyone who used the services of the American company that was acquired by Verizon could be viewed as.

Among the information that the perpetrators belonged to-appropriated names, email addresses, phone numbers, passwords, and in some cases whether or not encrypted questions and answers on security and insurance. Credit card details and bank records were stored elsewhere, and are unlikely to be cracked.

Yahoo thinks it discovered incident differs from the hack from 2014 that was brought out in September. Then were stolen data of 500 million users.
