Do Son Recently, 3.3 million registered email passwords in the Netherlands have been stolen by hackers! And not through a complicated tactic, hackers can easily obtain a special search engine. According to the nltimes news report, the shotgun was not only an ordinary person, many Dutch government organizations and company employees were also among the victims, and many of them were also government departments. For the disclosure of internet privacy, we must remember to change the login password.
In recent years, information leakage has become a major problem. There are 1.4 billion email addresses and passwords leaked worldwide. There is currently a large password database and it has been in existence for at least half a year.
Herbert Bos, professor of Systems and Network Security at the VU University in Amsterdam, said: “People are registered on so many websites that they often have no idea how many, often with the same password. Even if you vary it a bit with numbers in your password, malicious parties can quickly find out about that via automated programs. And if people have your email and password, they have your identity.”
Do not think that theft of the mailbox is a trivial matter. By e-mail, it is equivalent to get your identity, you can further access a variety of social software passwords (many related to money, such as Paypal), bank account information and so on.
Now that the mailbox and all network affairs are related, breaking it first is equivalent to doing more with less! Next, you can get your social network password account via email and you can just sit at home and count the money.
Now, the Internet has become a staple food. The use of email to communicate in the information age has become a commonplace task. Important passwords, contracts, contract documents, etc. are transmitted via mailboxes.
Internet privacy security is not just about money and property. We have to be nervous; this is a right, something we need to struggle to maintain.
