There are a lot of websites being breached these days, so I am probably just going to stop giving my personal information to online corporations.

Be very careful to whom you provide your personal Information, and the nature of details.

I compromise companies every day- both on a mediocre level and on a very large scale. The sensitivity of data In the back-end Is consistent with assuming one's Identity within the hour, let alone other acts If I were someone with malicious Intent.

Incredible! Do you compromise companies for your job, or is it just a hobby?

Just a hobby.

The magnitude of vulnerabilities Is alarming to say the very least. E-commerce, Fortune 500 companies- you name It. I've already provided Images (heavily edited for security purposes) In various posts on this board. Of course, all without malicious Intent.

Why do I feel like that there have been more breaches in 2018 already than in the whole year of 2017. I thought that after all this GDPR bullshit companies would do better in protecting their userdata. It seems like they still haven't learned. Big companies like Adidas should start hiring hackers that test their platforms on a continuous basis.

Best to not use your personal information while signing up on sites, unless you really, REALLY have to.

You're not the only one, same with myself.

I've been monitoring breaches each day and there's certainly more this year than the previous, and we're only halfway through 2018.

I do believe there's been more. Part of it is breachers have just improved their skills, part is more vulnerabilities have been found. As things begin to be more automated issues arise. I imagine that the GDPR might have caused a big problem if some people integrated it poorly.

@zorrophreak I do certainly agree, but you'd expect that the larger companies just like adidas would hire some security specialists in order to test their websites/online products. I agree on the fact that it has to do with more vulnerabilities being found, not only that, but the interest in cyber security is raising as well.

Can't trust anyone really, but Adidas nailed it with its "security" lol

Oh Jeez,!!

It's a sports brand, people wouldn't mind.

Greetings everyone,

Adidas has experienced a data breach, that compromised millions of customers' personal Information. The extend of the data disclosure may not be conclusively determined. However, given that usernames and contact details are part of the equation, Identities can certainly be built from the ground up, let alone other acts of malicious nature when In the hands of the attackers.

Sports brand and trainer maker Adidas has suffered a data breach that may have spilled the personal information of potentially millions of its customers.

"On June 26, Adidas became aware that an unauthorized party claims to have acquired limited data associated with certain Adidas consumers," the German company told its customers last week.

The swiped data included the usernames and encrypted passwords of Adidas customers, as well as their contact information. However, Adidas does not believe that any payment details or data on customer fitness was stolen.

Currently, there is not a lot in the way of information to how the data breach occurred, the impact of the data leak, or indeed the methods the hacker or hackers may have used to get hold of the information. Adidas noted it is carrying out a "forensic review" to ascertain more information about the breach, as well as notify its customers.
