zomato breached …

[pnamajck]

to all you netizens out there who've used urbanspoon.com in the past and currently using zomato.com … change passwords. purportedly, somethin' like 17million pw's stolen. according to zomato's updated blog:

" The reason you’re reading this blog post is because of a recent discovery by our security team - about 17 million user records from our database were stolen. The stolen information has user email addresses and hashed passwords. "

not sure why this breach hasn't been listed on arstechnica or krebs … zomato acknowledged it last thursday … so, the reason cannot be that it was too recent?

anyway … do your thing.

p.s. i chose this board since it is not windows-security related.
