WebHostingTalk Database Compromised with Credit Card Stolen

Wed, 08 Apr 2009 03:30:21 +0000

Started work at 9:30am this morning and saw Ross’ Twitter status:

Wasn’t their database compromised, offsite backup erased, and hashed password stolen about two weeks ago? So I headed to WebHostingTalk, and got the iNET’s web page instead with status updates. It’s not looking good.

What data was compromised?
At this point, we know that the hacker compromised and has publicly posted credit card information from our self-service billing system currently used for sticky posts (located at http://myinet.inetinteractive.com). This system was also used for display (banner) advertising in prior to December 2007.

You’ll get a lot more discussion on this matter from other web hosting related forums. Some have been able to download the entire creditcard table with name, card number, CCV number, etc attached. Some have claimed that some number have already been used in China. With hashed-password stolen, it’s already quite possible to run dictionary attack on those foolish enough to reuse passwords across multiple sites (LxLabs’ billing system got compromised for example). With subscribers’ CC details stolen — it must suck to be iNET right now.

Overall, it didn’t make me laugh out loud – but didn’t annoy me either, so it belongs on the list.  It is “T and A” meets the three stooges.  So what do you think about this one, was it a hit or a miss?  Share your thoughts, and there will be another look back at the GoDaddy commercials tomorrow.

You may have heard about VPS hosting.  What is it, and why should you care?

If you need the power of a dedicated server, but can’t afford the price, there is an option.  A “virtual” dedicated server uses software like Virtuozzo.  A key advantage to a VPS is that it divides a dedicated ...]

Where did all the free web hosts go?

A long, long time ago free web hosts were the coolest thing on the internet
and most, if not all, non-commercial websites were hosted by one. You don't
hear that much about free hosting anymore so I though it would be interesting
to check out what has happened to the free web hosts that I have used.

What you know about the content of a web-site?

Mon, 19 May 2008 21:13:26 +0000
When you decide to create a web-site don’t think that any content will do for it. Of course a good navigation and pleasant colors will be to your visitors’ liking. But it is also very important to think over the content of your site and choose the correct character of the text.
Firstly, the content of ...]

WWW or Without WWW

Tue, 13 Jan 2009 02:51:51 +0000
To avoid duplicate content (not relevant), you must chose using www or without www. Another consideration not using www:

www is sub domain
www makes URL longer

Before decide, you must check your www pagerank anda without www pagerank.
I prefer to use without www because makes shoter url.
You can redirect all hit on subdomain www to domain on ...]
