16 Billion Leaked Credentials? Don’t panic—this isn’t a new data breach.

Headlines about a “historic data breach” are making waves, but this isn’t a new breach. The story about 16 billion credentials circulating online is actually a compilation of old leaks, mostly gathered by infostealer malware and credential stuffing attacks.

However, this is a good reminder about your cybersecurity hygiene. Remember to protect yourself and your organization:

• Use strong, unique passwords for every account
• Store them securely with a reputable password manager
• Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA)—preferably with an app like Authy or Google Authenticator
• Scan your devices for malware before changing passwords if you suspect an infection
