Description

In November 2020, the torrenting platform TorrentLeech suffered a data breach that impacted 555,000 members. The breach exposed sensitive information, including encrypted (and not readable) email addresses, usernames, and IP addresses. Additionally, the leaked data contained "PassKeys," though these were not hashed passwords. This incident highlights the need for strong cybersecurity measures, especially on platforms where user anonymity and security are critical. Employing modern encryption techniques, regularly updating security practices, and educating users about best privacy practices can help mitigate the risks of such breaches and safeguard user information.
