So maybe Ashley Madison isn’t actually that great at keeping secrets. As you’ve probably heard (or perhaps stressed over), hackers released internal data from the affair-facilitating website, including usernames and emails, source code, and othersensitive information. To shamelessly steal from the company’s M.O. itself, this is something Ashley Madison won’t want to talk about out loud.
Already, there have been plenty of embarrassed parties from the fall-out, ranging from government agents (featuring handles such as “sexlessmarriage,” “soontobesingle” or “latinlovers”) to Josh Duggar. However, this isn’t the only hack that has involved embarrassment for at least one of the parties involved. We at Legaltech News are in the business of providing relevant cybersecurity information—and if fear of becoming one of these people doesn’t scare you into upgrading your cybersecurity, nothing will.
