A third part email provider we use for our newsletter was impacted. Our own systems and customer accounts were not breached.
- ginja 4y agoWhat customer information did you store with that provider? Just names and emails, or was there anything else that attackers may have been able to access?
- notahacker 4y agoI don't know what they had stored, but the mailshots were addressed "Dear User" which suggests it was probably just emails My email was also my domain name contact email, so I originally thought they'd obtained it by DNS lookup...
- thenickdude 4y agoMine was addressed with my full name in the "To:" field, so they do have our full names (but just didn't mail-merge those into the body of the message).
- worksonmine 4y agoYou and who else? If it's one of your employees credentials getting compromised this excuse isn't going to age well and will do more harm than good. I assume you're using a big provider and there would be news of others being affected.
