Hi. I visited one site and this message suddenly popped out....
"We recently detected an attack where access was gained to Interpals servers. This attack was quickly blocked. Our investigations are ongoing, but some data, including some users password hashes and account information, such as usernames, may have been compromised. Although we only store hashed passwords, as a precautionary measure, we are asking all users to reset their passwords."
I think those attackers are considered "professional" ones. I think it would be better for them to upgrade their system. My thought is, this could have been prevented using a more advanced anti-hacking software. Something that could immediately notify them. Hackers are everywhere and they're all getting better too.
