Data had been left exposed for 10 months, and there has been at least one access event by an unknown third-party. We can’t know for certain what has happened to the exposed information, but the risk that it could be used for malicious purposes is very real.
Here’s how we can help you.
It has been reported that, in some cases, the recently discovered Virgin Media breach links customers to porn.
