Sega, the video game company, reported a database intrusion with approximately sensitive information on about 1.3 million customers may have been compromised.
The comprised database was on the Sega Pass website, and the compromised information included customer names, dates of birth, e-mail addresses and encrypted passwords. The company noted that the customer passwords were not stored in plain text. Even though the passwords were encrypted, it is recommended that users who maintain the same user/passwords across multiple websites change update their access information for all sites.
Sega sent an email to Sega Pass registered users informing them of the data breach.
