According to Blues News four Crytek owned websites have been hacked and all users of the websites are recommended to change their passwords immediately as well as the passwords of any other websites if those accounts use the same email and password combination. The four affected websites are Crytek.com, Mycryengine.com, Crydev.net and MyCrysis.com.
Crytek reportedly noticed unidentified suspicious activity on their website servers and as a result they said all the websites were taken offline immediately to identify the “damage” and deal with the breach.
Crytek stated that all passwords should be changed quickly and that no financial data has been compromised in this incursion, at least not so far. Yet again this is another example of a company not taking the proper precautions to ensure the safety of its users data and accounts. Hopefully Crytek will learn their lesson and ensure adequate safety measures in future.
