Hacked site AshleyMadison.com

The website of the followers of the AdWrite AshleyMadison.com was hacked by a hacker or a group of hackers calling themselves The Impact Team. Not only about 37–40 million customers (mainly from the USA and Canada), but also financial and internal information have flowed into the network. Executive Director of Avid Life Media (ALM) Noel Biderman (Noel Biderman), who manages this site, on Sunday evening confirmed the hacking of KrebsOnSecurity, stating that his company is urgently working to remove the compromising information from free access.

At the moment, it is known that hackers have published some of the customer information, a map of the company's internal servers, company bank accounts, and employee salaries. The manifest, published by hackers, states that the group decided to publish customer data as a response to the site suggesting to customers that they completely remove their $ 19 profile. According to hackers, the complete removal of information from the site, including search history, credit card numbers and real names and addresses, did not actually delete this information completely. It is alleged that in 2014, the "removal service" brought the company about 1.7 million dollars.

As a result, hackers require the two sites belonging to ALM to stop working completely: Ashley Madison and Established Men, otherwise, the hackers promise to fully publish all information about the users of the sites, including their profiles, correspondence, credit card numbers, real names and addresses, and the same correspondence of company employees and internal documentation. Every day, hackers promise to put more and more information into public access until the above-mentioned sites stop working.

The executive director of ALM declined to discuss the details of the internal investigation, although he mentioned that it was progressing very quickly. He also stated that most likely someone who had access to the company's internal network was involved in the hacking, although most likely it was not a company employee, but one of the contractors. In a published release, the company said that Cycura, including its technical manager Joel Eriksson, was also attracted to the investigation of this hack.

It is worth noting that the company ALM is going to go on an IPO this year, hoping to attract $ 200 million in investments. It seems that these plans will have to wait.
