If you’re in Utah, this article I saw which is three days old through twitter’s eyes anyway, came across my desk. It talks about Utah Gun Exchange and several of its sites suffering a data breach. The good news is that they use Paypal as their payment processor, but usernames and hashed passwords were compromised for at least 195 thousand users if not more.
The Utah Gun Exchange has taken steps to find the vulnerability and they have corrected it. A link to the statement is within the article. Bit Defender’s blog Hot for Security blogged this one. Utah Gun Exchange Confirms Data Breach after Bad Actors Publishes Stolen Customer Records Online is the article if you’re effected by this.
I don’t know if you are or are not, and I don’t know everyone who may reach this blog. Therefore, I feel its the best thing to publish a link to the story and let people know about the breach just the same.
