Vous en avez peut-être entendu parlé (ou pas), plusieurs sites de jeux vidéo comme le Playstation Network de Sony, le Blog et les serveurs Brink de Bethesda, Codemaster ou encore les serveurs de Minecraft se sont fait pirater. Il y a deux jours, c'était au tour de Bioware de subir des attaques, sur ses anciens forums de Neverwinter Nights. Bioware explique sur le BSN (Bioware Social Network) la marche à suivre afin que votre compte ne soit pas piraté à son tour. Pour cela Bioware vous invite à changer le mot de passe de votre compte Neverwinter Nights régulièrement.

 
Yesterday (June 14), we learned that a hacker gained unauthorized access to the decade-old BioWare community server system associated with the Neverwinter Nights forums.  We immediately took appropriate steps to protect our consumers’ data and launched an ongoing evaluation of the seriousness of the breach.  We have determined that no credit card data was compromised, nor did we ever have or store sensitive data like social security numbers.  However hackers may have obtained information such as user account names and passwords, email addresses, and birth dates of approximately 18,000 accounts--a very small percentage of total users.  We have emailed those whose accounts may have been compromised and either disabled their accounts or reset their EA Account passwords. If you did not receive an email from us, or if your password still works for your EA account, your username and password were not compromised.  Nevertheless, changing your password regularly is always helpful to protect your account.
