A Twitter user is suing the company for $5 million over a data leak which exposed users' personal information. According to cybersecurity researchers, the leak impacted over 200 million users. Twitter has denied that the data leak was caused by hackers exploiting a flaw in its systems. In early January, cybercrime intelligence company Hudson Rock suggested that hackers had stolen over 200 million Twitter users' information and published them onto a publicly available online hacking forum. "In response to recent media reports of Twitter users' data being sold online, we conducted a thorough investigation and there is no evidence that data recently being sold was obtained by exploiting a vulnerability of Twitter systems," the post said.
Hackers have stolen email addresses from over 200 million Twitter users, a cybersecurity firm said. Gal warned in an additional LinkedIn post that hackers will take advantage of the database to hack "high profile accounts," "crypto Twitter accounts," and "political accounts." Bleeping Computer reported that it was able to confirm the validity of many of the email addresses listed in Wednesday's leak. Gal had first reported that hackers had stolen the data of 400 million Twitter users in December. Hunt said in a tweet that he had discovered around 211 million unique email addresses linked to the Twitter leak.
LONDON, Jan 5 (Reuters) - Hackers stole the email addresses of more than 200 million Twitter users and posted them on an online hacking forum, a security researcher said Wednesday. It was not clear what action, if any, Twitter has taken to investigate or remediate the issue. Claims about the size and scope of the breach initially varied with early accounts in December saying 400 million email addresses and phone numbers were stolen. A major breach at Twitter may interest regulators on both sides of the Atlantic. The Data Protection Commission in Ireland, where Twitter has its European headquarters, and the U.S. Federal Trade Commission have been monitoring the Elon Musk-owned company for compliance with European data protection rules and a U.S. consent order respectively.
