On May 17, 2016, it was discovered that a database containing the personal information of over 100 million LinkedIn users had been leaked and made available for sale on the dark web. The data included users' full names, email addresses, and hashed passwords, as well as information about their employment history and job titles.
The breach, which was initially reported by an underground cybercrime marketplace, was later confirmed by LinkedIn. In a statement, the company said that it had "recently become aware of an old file from the LinkedIn member data set from the early days of LinkedIn being made available on the internet," and that it had taken steps to "invalidate the passwords of all LinkedIn accounts that were created prior to the 2012 breach."
The incident was a major security breach for LinkedIn, and it raised concerns about the safety and security of user data on the platform. It also highlighted the need for companies to take steps to protect their customers' personal information, and to be transparent about any breaches that may occur.
Despite the efforts of LinkedIn to secure its users' accounts, the incident had a lasting impact on the company's reputation, and it served as a reminder of the importance of maintaining strong cybersecurity measures to protect against potential data breaches. Overall, the LinkedIn database leak was a significant event that had far-reaching consequences for both the company and its users.
