Eidos and Deus Ex sites hacked, personal data acquired?

Posted on May 13, 2011 by Dissent

Brian Krebs reports that Eidos Interactive and one of its biggest titles — Deus Ex– have been hacked and some user information accessed or acquired:

KrebsOnSecurity.com obtained an archived copy of the attackers’ online chatter as they were covering their tracks from compromising the sites. A hacker using the alias “ev0″ discusses having defaced the sites and downloading some 9,000 resumes from Eidos. ev0 and other hackers discuss leaking “src,” which may refer to source code for Deus Ex or other Eidos games. In a separate conversation, the hackers also say they have stolen information on at least 80,000 Deus Ex users and that they plan to release the data on file-sharing networks.
