A cybersecurity company said Tuesday it has obtained a list of 360 million account credentials for Web services, likely collected through multiple data breaches.
One batch of 105 million details, discovered about 10 days ago by the company, included email addresses and corresponding passwords, but it isn't clear what Web services the credentials
My Thoughts:
We not only lose our credentials, The hackers also get to know how we determine the process of creating passwords (Ex: P@55w0rd would disclose that I am replacing alphabets with similar looking characters)
