Their most recent find: a 41-gigabyte file that contains a staggering 1.4 billion username and password combinations.
The usernames and passwords have been collected from a number of different sources. 4iQ’s screenshot shows dumps from Netflix, Last.FM, LinkedIn, MySpace, dating site Zoosk, adult website YouPorn, as well as popular games like Minecraft and Runescape. (Dec 11, 2017, 02:45pm
File With 1.4 Billion Hacked And Leaked Passwords Found On The Dark Web. Lee Mathews)
While scanning the deep and dark web for stolen, leaked or lost data, 4iQ discovered a single file with a database of 1.4 billion clear text credentials — the largest aggregate database found in the dark web to date.
The 41GB dump was found on 5th December 2017 in an underground community forum. The database was recently updated with the last set of data inserted on 11/29/2017. The total amount of credentials (usernames/clear text password pairs) is 1,400,553,869.
We’ve found that although the majority of these breaches are known within the Breach and Hacker community, 14% of exposed username/passwords pairs had not previously been decrypted by the community and are now available in clear text.

One list, known as the “Anti Public Combo List“, contains 457,962,538 distinct email addresses, and although HIBP creator Troy Hunt, who first reported the discovery of the lists last Friday, has so far been unable to trace the source of the data, he believes it comes from multiple breaches rather than a single event.

On Friday, Twitter user Chris Vickery teased world plus dog that he was going public on Monday with news of a massive data breach of 1.37 billion records. And that turned out to be as many as 1.37 billion contact details amassed by River City Media (RCM) – an internet marketing biz apparently based in Jackson, Wyoming, that claims to emit up to a billion emails a day.
The 200GB table includes real names, email addresses, IP addresses, and “often” physical addresses, it is claimed. Vickery said he “stumbled upon a suspicious, yet publicly exposed, collection of files,” and discovered the database and documents related to RCM. Among the millions and millions of contact details were chat logs and files exposing the sprawling RCM empire. It turns out the spamming, er, marketing biz has many tentacles and affiliates, mostly acting as web service providers and advertising operations.

I get a lot of requests from people for data from Have I been pwned (HIBP) that they can analyse. Now obviously, there are a bunch of people up to no good requesting the data but equally, there are many others who just want to run statistics. Regardless, the answer has always been “no”, I’m not going to redistribute data to you. In fact, the requests were happening so frequently that I even wrote the blog post No, I cannot share data breaches with you.
However, as part of HIBP’s 3rd birthday celebrations, I am going to share data with you, quite a lot of it. In fact, I’m opening up almost all the data in HIBP with a few very important caveats: (Here’s 1.4 billion records from Have I been pwned for you to analyse. 06 DECEMBER 2016 troyhunt.com
A Russian group has hacked 1.2 billion usernames and passwords belonging to more than 500 million email addresses, according to Hold Security – a US firm specialising in discovering breaches. Hold Security described the hack as the “largest data breach known to date”. It claimed the stolen information came from more than 420,000 websites, including “many leaders in virtually all industries across the world”.

MDPIはハゲタカか?
どの雑誌がハゲタカジャーナルでどの雑誌はそうではないのかがわかればいいのですが、時としてどっちか悩むジャーナルも存在します。みんなを悩ませているのがMDPI社の雑誌。商売上手で取り入るのが上手いので、いつの間にか認知されてしまっています。Web of ScienceやPubmedにも収載されており(一部とはいえ)、インパクトファクターもそこそこある雑誌もあるので、もはやハゲタカじゃね?などとは言えなくなっています。しかし、Beallさんのハゲタカジャーナルリストには過去には載っていたようです。MDPIの激しい抗議の結果リストから除外されたという経緯があります。

東大理系の数学の問題が易しくなったというのは、数年前から一部教育界では話題になっていたが、その理由が「知識を詰めこむことよりも、持っている知識を関連付けて解を導く能力の高さを重視」というアドミッションポリシーを反映しているという土田先生のコメントに納得。「入試問題は、学校からのメッセージ」といわれるが、理系学部の数学という象徴的な科目での方向転換は、入試で燃え尽きるのではなく、入学後に力を発揮する学生を望んでいるというメッセージかもしれない。また、東大側の狙いとして、世間で言われている女子学生比率を3割にするという目標とともに、数学に強い私立中高一貫校出身者だけではなく、地方を含む全国公立校の生徒の入学比率を高めたいという狙いもあるのではないだろうか。(東大、なぜ数学の入試問題が近年易しくなっている?問題に込められたメッセージとは? 中曽根陽子/教育ジャーナリスト2018.06.30 Business Journal)

biscUiTは、2011年4月に創刊した、東大女子のためのフリーペーパーです。UTはUniversity of Tokyoを表しています。東大女子はどこにいてもマイノリティです。学内でも多数派は男子であり、男子を前提としていろいろな居場所が形成されています。そんな東大女子にとって「私たちの『ための』もの」がないのが現状です。このような中で、biscUiTは、東大女子が「これが私たちのものだ」と心から共感できるフリーペーパーを目指しています。

結果的に物理化学は25年分、数学英語は30年分以上、国語は8年分くらい解きました。もしあなたの志望校が難関であれば、25カ年とかも発売されていると思いますから、過去問の入手が可能であれば、25年分は解くと良いと思います。センター試験が終わってから、1日1年分のペースで解けば、25年分くらいなら1ヶ月もかからず終わると思います。人によって意見は違うと思いますが、僕は、受験直前にすべき勉強は、基礎の確認よりも、演習をして試験本番でフルパワーを出せるようにする訓練の方だと思っています。そうすると、過去問演習に集中出来ますから、1日1年分なんて簡単に終わると思います。(【必見】東大生が教える過去問の解き方【いつから?何年分?】最終更新日:2018/8/9 STUDY FOR.)

PROVIDENCE — Welcome to Shiru Cafe. Keep your cash. The coffee is free, as long as you are a university student and drink your beverage in-house. The catch? You must give up some personal information: your name, your e-mail, your age, your field of study, your professional interests.
