About This Breach
In approximately September 2014, the now-defunct social networking service Tout suffered a data breach. The breach, which surfaced years later, exposed 653k unique email addresses, names, IP addresses, user locations, bios, and passwords stored as bcrypt hashes. The delayed discovery of the breach underscores the importance of maintaining strong cybersecurity protocols, even for platforms no longer in operation, to safeguard sensitive user data.
