Another day another Data Breach - Latest news-maker is Samsung Boxee



Yielded 158,000 customer passwords !!!


According to the article:- 

Boxee’s main corporate page still contains an upbeat message about its recent deal with Samsung, and its social feeds contain no mention of the hack


The attackers posted an 800MB file of user data, and it was left to independent security researchers

The file appears to contain 172,000 email addreses, plus 158,128 cryptographically scrambled email addresses – as well as birth dates, IP addresses, message histories, and password changes.
