Description

In December 2011, the Chinese dating site Zhenai.com experienced a data breach that affected 5 million subscribers. While there is evidence suggesting the data is legitimate, the breach has been flagged as "unverified" due to the challenges in definitively verifying Chinese breaches. The compromised data includes email addresses and plain text passwords. This incident underscores the importance of implementing strong cybersecurity measures to protect user data and prevent such breaches.
