According to CyberNews researchers, the data is likely to come from various abductors. Almost none of the dates found by researchers, except for one of 184 million records, which despite its size, is one of the smallest sets.
The largest dasette contains 3.6 billion records, probably a portugalo -speaking population. Two more sets consist of 2.8 and 1.9 billion. Even the smallest sets contains 16 million records. Given all 30 sets, on average, one daset contains about 550 million passwords, logins and other confidential information.
Researchers note that new data sets have appeared almost weekly since the beginning of their investigation. At the same time, they only appeared in a short time that allowed them to be fixed, but not to determine who was behind them. The sets contained data that could access any service you may think of-including government services.
“It is not just a leakage is a mass use plan. With more than 16 billion logins, cybercriminals now have unprecedented access to personal data that can be used to capture accounts, theft of personal data and purposeful phishing. Suitable for use as weapons reconnaissance data on a large scale, “the researchers said.
Despite the fact that comparing the data collected from each Daaste was impossible, they all responded with a relatively similar structure containing the URL, the login and password of a particular service. This is how the data collect most modern infantilers – a harmful software that steals confidential information.
Some kits have been reported to have common names such as Logins, Credentials and similar general terms. At the same time, there were quite specific names, such as one of the sets of 455 million records called “Russian Federation”. Another 60 million records were called Telegram.
Whoever stands on these origins, and data from which accounts would not be stolen, we advise you to take the necessary steps and replace the passwords at least with the most important accounts.
