Written by Faizan Patankar

We are starting the new Weekly Recap series, in which we will bring stories from the past week you might have missed. We would love to hear your feedback on our Weekly Recap series and hopefully we can feed your appetite with this new feature.

LinkedIn Passwords Stolen

One of our highest read stories of the week was the LinkedIn password steal and how the day unfolded when it was discovered that 6.5 million LinkedIn passwords were dumped on a Russian web forum. Once LinkedIn accepted that 6.5 million LinkedIn passwords were compromised, we wrote a follow up post for our readers on how you can change your password in 30 seconds! You can also check if your password was stolen .
