Any response to the verified breach and how we can protect ourselves? [image] Wyze Essay 1 - Your information is exposed. Recently, Wyze, the fast selling consumer camera company, was breached. Personally, in ten years of sysadmin and cloud engineering, I have never encountered a breach of this magnitude. [image] Wyze Massive Data Leak Wyze has exposed millions of user's data, as reported by Twelve Security, and confirmed by IPVM, who has spoken with Twelve Security and reviewed the records.

Yes I didn’t create it, I just let lastpass save it

Now that I think about it, I understand what’s happening. Sometimes if your login is on a subdomain, for example, it tries to add the entire domain. 90% of the time, that’s useful, but sometimes it’s not, and it tries to autofill my password somewhere where it wouldn’t be used. I’m guessing this would probably be coming from similar logic within LastPass. It’s not actually sending your passwords there, it’s just guessing that you might want it to be autofilled on that domain, basically.

That’s it exactly. Most password managers try to guess where the web link should be if they can’t determine it otherwise. They don’t actually send anything there, unless you choose “Open and Fill” or whatever your managers equivalent is.

I’ve asked the LastPass support staff to review this part of the thread to keep us from having to guess how their software works.

I’m pretty pissed off that i heard about this breach via the internet and STILL have not heard through Wyze in any form that it happened. I have been a loyal customer and love your products. I ordered the doorlock! (which i still have not received). I dont even know if I want to use it now that i’ve heard about this breach and the lack of any confirmation from Wyze. When did you plan on sending out the email… oh btw we left your information out there without any security for the world to see, this happened a few weeks ago, sorry we are just letting you know now. This is a total lack of concern… and it may be the end of my relationship with Wyze. you could have handled this in a much better way. MOD NOTE: Post edited to conform to the Community Guidelines

He/she means reaching out to customers directly. The percentage of customers that come to the forum is probably very small. I’m surprised too that it’s taking them to figure out how to word the apology email that should be coming.

I would think it’s less about “wording” and more about making sure all the information is known and correct before they send something.

I would think that since they knew mostly info easily obtained by other means was "leaked " they admitted to it promptly then tried to get “The Suits” to agree. Remember HOLIDAYS !

What is this “holiday” thing you speak of?

What is up with the data breach?
