“The point is that the storage was not sufficiently protected. This means that there are some loopholes through which hackers can penetrate and (if necessary and desired) steal these passwords or arrange an uncontrolled drain. Such a statement is, to some extent, an attempt to be safe from the fact that in the near future some complications may arise, ”said Byshok.
According to him, this problem will be solved, because "Facebook is not one of many companies, but a basic platform on which people from all over the world communicate."
“Of course, the company will look for solutions to this issue. But you need to understand that along with how Facebook is developing, the possibilities of hackers and programmers are also improving, who may well use their skills to steal data, ”the expert concluded.
Previously, the Facebook company admitted that it kept some passwords from user accounts of the same social network in an unprotected form.
It is noted that "millions" of users whose passwords were stored unprotected, will be informed.
