About This Breach

In April 2019, the PDF management service Lumin PDF suffered a data breach. The breach was not publicly disclosed until September when 24M records of user data appeared for download on a popular hacking forum. The data had been left publicly exposed in a MongoDB instance after which Lumin PDF was allegedly been contacted multiple times, but ignored all the queries. The exposed data included names, email addresses, genders, spoken language and either a bcrypt password hash or Google auth token.
