Uber admitted that hackers hacked their server, gaining access to personal data - names, addresses and phones - 57 million users and drivers.

Hacker attack occurred in 2016, but the company still hides this information from the public. Instead of reporting the incident, Uber preferred to pay the hackers the required $ 100,000. According to the company's statement:.

"During the incident, we immediately took action to protect data and stop further unauthorized access by unauthorized persons. Then we identified the attackers and received assurances that the downloaded data were destroyed, and security measures were also taken ".

The main risk for users of crypto currency is the mobile wallet. Having access to names and phone numbers, hackers can get hold of the data on the phone or even restart the phone as an access point to enter the mobile wallet. At the moment, among the victims is a well-known investor Chris Berniske, whose criminals stole about $ 150 000. Although there is no direct threat, the bitcoin owners should pay close attention to the balance on their mobile wallets. Moreover, it is recommended to store most of its crypto-currency savings on offline media.
