March 2024 by Sylvain Cortes, VP Strategy at Hackuity
AI Service, Cutout.Pro has experienced a data breach which exposed the PII of 20 million members including IP addresses, names, email addresses and hashed and salted passwords. 5.93 GB of stolen data was shared on Tuesday to the BreachForums hacking forum, via a link to the CSV files.
Sylvain Cortes, VP Strategy, Hackuity comments:
"Get ready for some eerily targeted phishing scams. With the news that 20 million user records are now exposed, from photos to emails to phone numbers to location data, this is a frightening affirmation of the need for the very regulations that governments are putting into place around the globe. The fact that this breach falls squarely on the shoulders of an AI service will only draw more attention. If you are (or might be) one of the users affected, batten down your data hatches now."
