===== Data Breach =====

Hackers infiltrated Epik's systems and stole essentially everything. (([[https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/09/25/epik-hack-fallout/|Fallout begins for far-right trolls who trusted Epik to keep their identities secret]]))

They had root (admin) access to critical systems and leaked a [[torrent]] of information retrieved, and data is kept by [[DDOSecrets]]

This included: 

  * Domain purchases
  * Domain transfers
  * WHOIS history
  * DNS changes
  * Email forwards, catch-alls, etc.
  * Payment history
  * Account credentials
  * Over 500,000 private keys
  * An employee's mailbox
  * Git repositories
  * /home/ and /root/ directories of a core system
  * Bootable disk images
