UNACADEMY DATABASE OF 22 MILLION USERS HACKED, INFORMATION PUT UP FOR SALE

Unacademy database of 22 million users hacked, information put up for sale

Synopsis


THE FIRM RECOMMENDED THAT REGISTERED UNACADEMY LEARNERS AND EDUCATORS
IMMEDIATELY CHANGE THEIR PASSWORDS ON THE SITE.

ThinkStock PhotosAccording to Cyble, the hackers are only putting up the user
records up for sale at this time and may have access to more information.
MUMBAI: A database of around 22 million users of Unacademy with contacts of
employees of Wipro, Infosys, Cognizant, Google and its investor Facebook is up
for sale on the darkweb, according to US-based security firm Cyble. The company
had suffered a breach in January following which contacts were put up for sale
as recently as May 3 for $2000, the firm said.

According to Cyble the database includes usernames, emails addresses, passwords,
date joined, last login date, first and last names, account profile and account
status (whether the account is active).

Hemesh Singh, Co- Founder and CTO, Unacademy in a statement to ET said, "As per
our internal investigations, email data of around 11 million users has been
compromised as against 22 million stated in reports. This is on account of only
around 11 million email data of users available on the Unacademy platform. We
have been closely monitoring the situation and would like to assure our users
that no sensitive information such as financial data or location has been
breached. Data security and privacy protection of our users is of utmost
importance to us and we are doing everything possible, to ensure no personal
information is compromised. We follow stringent encryption methods using the
PBKDF2 algorithm with a SHA256 hash, making it highly implausible for anyone to
decrypt passwords. We also follow an OTP based login system that provides an
additional layer of security to our users. "



Unacademy recently raised a Series F round of funding of $110 million. Key
investors in the firm include Facebook, General Atlantic and Sequoia.

According to Cyble, the hackers are only putting up the user records up for sale
at this time and may have access to more information. The firm recommended that
registered Unacademy learners and educators immediately change their passwords
on the site.

   environment, you look out for analyses that draw perspective and insights. ET
   Prime is one such platform that has raised the bar in providing this analyses
   consistently and have redefined journalism away from just reporting. I have
   had many conversations with their journalists in the areas of Fintech,
   Consumer and Banking and have come out quite impressed with the depth of
   their understanding. Infact their reporting on Fintech has been quite
   prescient.

   and quotes from eminent industry stalwarts.
   Vikash Mohan
   CEO, DHL SmarTrucking
 * I have been reading ET prime probably since inception. The reason I read ,
   especially healthcare , is because the issues are discussed at length and
   cover most aspects of the issue. Also there is scholarly treatment to
   discussions and all sides represented. There is no shortcut and normally
   stories end with a question that we keep thinking about. That is what we want
   to read as serious readers and students of the industry.
   Sanjiv Navangul
   CEO and MD, Bharat Serums and Vaccines
 * In-depth understanding of aviation issues at hand combined with the ability
   to get experts and decision makers to open up with great detail enables the
   articles on ET Prime provide insight that adds value to experts and industry
   insiders.This is not an easy task and that makes ET Prime an invaluable part
   of the daily routine.
