At this time, we’ve found no evidence that financial information such as credit cards, billing addresses, or real names were compromised. Our investigation is ongoing, but so far nothing suggests that these pieces of information have been accessed.

Hi folks, in the Bnet account management, where to click and change the security question ?
*
you need to send a support ticket to bnet admins to reset it for you, but they say they gonna prompt a security question change "soon", no specific time given

So I've had some time to sit down and think about this. This hacking is very bad. At this point, the attackers have got your

  • email address
  • secret question and answer
  • salted passwords[
I would like to state that even though the passwords are salted, its still crackable. Any basic maths geek will be able to tell you that with a large enough database, the constants can be deduced easily. This leaves your real password.

I have read an article about this and I think the author is on the right track when he says SRP may not be strong enough. Link to article. Read if you are interested in the theory of it.

But note that the author is an interested party when bashing Blizz AND like he said, its impossible to avoid break-ins. Although as long as there was a battlenet server to store and maintain user's characters, this would have happened. It doesn't matter if there was an offline aspect to D3.

that 3 keys are actually all they need to access our acc, they can butter up whatever facts they want, secret answer alone can bypass half of the "security" they have for accs lol, and like u said, encrypted passwords are nothing these days
