Name.com a fost spart

Name.com a fost spart, așadar dacă folosiți serviciile lor ar fi bine să vă resetați parola și să vă ștergeti profilul de plată automată. Sunt clientul lor de vreo 4 ani dar pană acum nu am avut vreo astfel de problemă. Nu știu câte conturi au fost afectate și câte numere de carduri (criptate) au fost furate, cert este că treaba e serioasă.

Poate că titlul articolului nu este suficient de clar, nu site-ul a fost spart ci prin intermediul unui security breach, niște indivizi au avut acces la informații care nu erau destinate decât firmei. Cam așa arată partea ”interesantă” din emailul primit de la ei în această seară:

We are writing to inform you of a security measure we have taken to protect the integrity of the domain names and information associated with your account.

Name.com recently discovered a security breach where customer account information including usernames, email addresses, and encrypted passwords and encrypted credit card account information may have been accessed by unauthorized individuals. It appears that the security breach was motivated by an attempt to gain information on a single, large commercial account at Name.com.

Name.com stores your credit card information using strong encryption and the private keys required to access that information are stored physically in a separate remote location that was not compromised. Therefore, we don’t believe that your credit card information was accessed in a usable format. Additionally, your EPP codes (required for domain transfers) were unaffected as they are also stored separately. We have no evidence to suggest that your data has been used for fraudulent activities.
