Facebook hacked !!
Today, 12 oct, the giant facebook announced that it was hacked.
A shock for the entire world and a real bomb for the IT security.
Facebook declared that more then 30 millions of user accounts were stolen and 50 million accounts were exposed when the cyber attack stole login keys to access to the profiles .
Till now the company don't know who was behined the attack and what pushed the hackers to do so.
But they have confirmed that 30 millions of profiles data were stolen like names emails and phone numbers, but the worst of it is that 14 millions of those hacked profiles were more exploited, so hackers took even their birthday, hometown or their searching history.
Now the FBI are investigating on this attack, hope they will manage it, and find these hackers.
This attack is the biggest one in the facebook history, mark zuckerburg (facebook's CEO) already had some problemes with the congres about the IT security these year, now he is facing one of the biggest data robbery in his company. I wonder how he would explain this ??
Listning all this, gived me a cold back, and make me think if our informations are truly peotected in the internet or are we always expossed to any cyber attack?
Notice that even google had a breach like these for many monthes, when they found it they just hided the information, who leaked and made a big scandal for google who declared that they will end with the google+ service in the future monthes.

If you were hacked, facebook would send you a message but they declared that for prevention users have to change their password if they want
