The hacking of LinkedIn (and the result of 6.5 million passwords being compromised) demonstrates a number of pressing issues including: why the firm was so slow to respond; how best to protect any given end-users’ accounts / data; how the trend of hacking continues to increase in frequency and sophistication; and, the importance of changing passwords regularly / not using the same one across multiple websites, etc. (amongst other considerations too numerous to detail herein) especially given that last.fm looks to been hacked too (oh and then there’s eHarmony… add that website to the list…)
