Commenting on development, Brad Freeman, Director of Technology at SenseOn said: “Individuals and organisations can safeguard their credentials in two easy steps:

  1. Enable multi-factor authentication on all platforms.
  2. Generate unique, random passwords for each service with a built-in password manager on your phone or browser.

“Lacking multi-factor authentication and varied passwords leaves you highly vulnerable. Attackers can easily assemble a detailed profile about you across numerous websites, putting you at risk for fraud and significant personal data exposure.”

NCA

The NCA arrested 24 suspected users including men aged 34 and 36 in Grimsby, Lincolnshire,

They are being held on suspicion of fraud and computer offences.
