Online backup company Carbonite is the latest firm to have
issued a warning that hackers are attempting to break into its
users accounts, and are prompting all users to change their
passwords as a result. An email has been sent to Carbonite
users explaining that the attackers are thought to be using
passwords gleaned from other recent mega-breaches.
