Personal Data leak at domain operator GoDaddy

On 17 November, the US-based company discovered unauthorised access to its Managed WordPress hosting environment. An unauthorised third party used a compromised password and gained access to the system used to configure and share resources for the delivery of hosting services. Once the incident was identified, unauthorised access to the system was immediately blocked. However, up to 1.2 million email addresses and customer numbers of former and current Managed WordPress users may have been compromised as a result of the leak.
