Why it matters

If the database is real, Plesio customers face email and account compromise wherever they reuse the same password, plus use of their data as marketing leads. For the company, there is risk of account fraud and loss of customer trust.

What to do

Monitor for abnormal logins on customer accounts and force password resets with two-factor authentication. Tell customers to change reused passwords, especially on email, and track the forum for new samples or confirmations.
