Linked – Dropbox hack leads to dumping of 68m user passwords on the internet

Popular cloud storage firm Dropbox has been hacked, with over 68m users’ email addresses and passwords dumped on to the internet.
The attack took place during 2012. At the time Dropbox reported a collection of user’s email addresses had been stolen. It did not report that passwords had been stolen as well.

Go to Dropbox. Turn on two-step verification. Thank me later.
