Emails and Encrypted Passwords Stolen From Blizzard

Blizzard let it be known that their security was breached on Thursday.

Emails for all users were taken, as well as passwords.

All of the passwords were still encrypted, so they weren't automatically allowing entry into accounts.

The company is sure that their encryption will stand the test, but advises all users to change their passwords immediately, anyways.

Personal security question and mobile and dial-in authentication information were also accessed, but financial information such as credit cards, billing addresses, or real names were not compromised.

Law enforcement is involved, and Blizzard is hoping that the hackers will be caught.
