Yahoo! Mail Hacked

Yahoo! confirmed it had suffered from hacking to their email accounts. Though they claim to have a secure domain, the hackers have put their efficiency in doubt.

The website is now stable, and is checking everyone's accounts to ensure their safety. Yahoo! will improve website security. Yahoo! Mail has asked all users to change or reset their passwords and usernames, in the hopes none of the hackers get information.




The company thinks that the hackers got information from a non-affiliated helper, and now have access to every interface user's email and password, allowing them access to personal data.

The event has called Yahoo!'s attention, forcing them into finding new ways to make each of the users' account safer and more reliable. The company is currently led by Marisa Mayer, who, despite apologizing, cannot give back the stolen accounts, causing despair amongst the end users.
