Recent headline news has informed me that Parliament were next on the agenda to be hacked. I think after the recent election it was something that they needed to be extra cautious with. The hack hit up to 90 users, luckily this was only 1% of the potential 9000 users.
If anything all of these cyber attacks have really opened my eyes as to how this keeps reoccurring within such huge corporations. A spokesman for Parliament stated that the attack was a result of 'weak passwords' - it is so important that passwords are regularly updated and are strong, this way you and your business will be at a lower risk of becoming a victim of such a dangerous crime.
The users that were targeted as a result of the Parliament hack have been contacted and now are under investigation to see if any data has been lost or is missing.
Take this is a warning guys- make sure all your passwords are secure!
