Massive X-Factor US database hack part of long-term fraud data pimping strategy says SecurEnvoy

(PresseBox) (Parkview, )
Another hack and this time the personal details of 250,000 entrants to the X-Factor US competition appear to have been compromised. And, says Andy Kemshall, technical director of SecurEnvoy, this is the latest in a string of attacks on corporate servers to extract personal data, suggesting that cybercriminals are now building information profiles on people, rather than developing frauds around available credentials.

"This corporate hack is notable, both for the size of the database theft, and the fact it was made against the servers of music executive Simon Cowell, who is renowned for his attention to detail.
