Hosting provider Hostinger announced that it reset the login passwords of 14 million of its customers following a recent security breach that enabled unauthorized access to a client database.
It was found that a third party was able to access usernames, hashed passwords, emails, first names, and IP addresses.
The organization reported that an unauthorized party accessed one of their servers and was then able to obtain further access to customer information.
The password reset action is a precautionary measure and Hostinger clients received the notification and details on how to regain access to their account.
