Recently it came to light that VTech had been hacked, potentially revealing thousands of emails and usernames. The hacker has revealed more information though on what was contained and revealed within the hack, the information which was revealed yesterday.
The data that was obtained from the hack contained around 4.8 million users details, but the scope of the information is nothing compared to what the hacker was able to obtain. 200GB’s of images were downloaded from the server containing images of both the parents and child of the registered accounts, coupled with the chat logs between parents and children (some of which are recording of conversations).
VTech suggests using the image so that it’s easier for parents and children to talk and interact through their services. The hacker provided Motherboard with 3,832 image files and at least one audio recording to prove that the information they obtained was legitimate and the scope of the risk from such an amount of data.
If that wasn’t bad enough, the photos, chats and recordings were often linked to usernames, something that normally wouldn’t be a problem but with usernames, address and emails being revealed and even their security questions and answers (meaning that resetting your password would have been an easy task).
While the service has been stopped by VTech while they investigate. The hacker stated, “it makes me sick that I was able to get all this stuff” and I think it’s fair to say that no matter what they do VTech has a lot to answer for.
