TalkTalk Customer Details Are Still Vulnerable
When the TalkTalk hack occurred a few weeks ago, a total of 157,000 customers were affected. Among the information retrieved were names, addresses, phone numbers, and even dates of birth. Up until this point, it remains unclear as to whether or not any financial details have been leaked.

But that isn’t the only concern for TalkTalk customers, as researchers have unveiled even more security flaws affecting the ISP’s systems. Especially the online services run by the company are vulnerable to attack, such as the ISP’s website, as well as their email services. Needless to say, these security risks need to be patched sooner rather than later.

According to TalkTalk, no financial information (customer bank details, credit cards information ) is hacked.

Over the past six years, various Bitcoin platforms have been hacked and attacked. Sometimes, these attacks were successful, and Bitcoins were stolen. However, every single one of those sites has learned from their mistakes, and implemented proper security measures ever since.
it''s very long time
