DROPBOX Inc confirmed on Wednesday that a data breach discovered and disclosed in 2012 was bigger than previously known and according to one report could involve almost 69 million accounts.
The cloud-storage company said that it reset the passwords last week of all affected users - people who signed up for accounts before the middle of 2012 and hadn't changed their passwords since then. The company confirmed that more than 60 million accounts were affected. Vice's Motherboard website earlier reported the figure.
