intelligencex hacked or intelx as you know it - python245 - 07-15-2022 In approximately August 2021, Intelligence X (intelx.io) was attacked by an attacker who scraped the "Paste" section on their website. This data was collected by searching for common email domains and then exporting the results. The published file contained more than 80,000 pastes pulled from pastebin.com, pastie.org, and skidpaste.org by IntelX or by third parties from whom they purchased the data. In total, 46 million unique email addresses were present in the archive, many of the archives being combined email:password lists or small databases that people posted on paste websites. Uncompressed data is around 6 GB. Compromised data: usernames, email addresses, passwords RE: intelligencex hacked or intelx as you know it - wtf3421 - 10-09-2022 Didn't know about this leak thanks for sharing RE: intelligencex hacked or intelx as you know it - alexseen13 - 11-12-2024 фівівфііфвф віф іф віф вфівіфв іфв фів фівфівфі RE: intelligencex hacked or intelx as you know it - xdddmeowon - 11-12-2024 This breach highlights the risks of publicly sharing sensitive data on open platforms and the potential for large-scale data scraping. It also emphasizes the importance of using strong, unique passwords and enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) to protect against breaches like this. Public paste sites are common targets for attackers seeking to exploit exposed credentials. |
