Kickstarter hacked, user info stolen - [security]
05:12 AM EST - Feb,16 2014 - post a comment

Email addresses, phone numbers, passwords and other user data have been stolen from popular crowdfunding platform Kickstarter after hackers infiltrated the site:
While no credit card data was accessed, some information about our customers was. Accessed information included usernames, email addresses, mailing addresses, phone numbers, and encrypted passwords. Actual passwords were not revealed, however it is possible for a malicious person with enough computing power to guess and crack an encrypted password, particularly a weak or obvious one.
Kickstarter apologized for the breach, saying that they would take steps to improve their security in the future. They also recommended that Kickstarter users change the password for their account and any other accounts which share the same password.
