Evernote hacked: Emails, encrypted passwords stolen
http://j.mp/12jDMgf (SlashGear)
"Cloud notetaking service Evernote has been hacked, the company has
revealed today, with an unidentified attacker compromising servers and
extracting usernames, email addresses, and encrypted passwords. The
attack has forced a mandatory password reset, meaning all users must
change their password before they can log back into their account, but
Evernote says there is no evidence of either notes being viewed by a
third-party, or payment details of Evernote Premium or Business users
being accessed."
