Hello folks,
The big news coming out of the Cyber Wire is this 9to5mac article titled Twitter data breach exposes contact details for 5.4M accounts; on sale for $30k which goes all the way back to a January breach. Now, the update seems to be that an actor is now selling the database for $30,000 and samples that was obtained by Restore Privacy indicate that the database is real. It includes fields that we, the users, may have marked as private in Twitter thanks to the vulnerability.
They also talked about Censys and their research. (Blog Post)
While the breach is nothing new, the fact that news indicating that this is now out for sale can be a little bit concerning.
Sadly, there’s nothing we can do.
