Edvinito Posted July 19, 2017 Report Posted July 19, 2017 Today most of us saw some hackers have got our username and password logins to the server. My suggestion would be to give a player to choose to put a security question or not. When a person tries to log in to that account with a different IP-address - security question pops out and asks for a right answer. This might be a better solution than changing passwords for everyone.
AnnoyingOne Posted July 19, 2017 Report Posted July 19, 2017 wait, what happened? And how many accounts were compromised?

Probably all of them, this is what GT:MP announced.. The hackers seem to have gained access to our forums, making it possible for them to get hands on our forums data. Passwords are double salted and hashed, decrypting those is almost impossible. User data like email & username are leaked, we advice everybody to change their password on other platforms.
Xylum Posted July 19, 2017 Report Posted July 19, 2017 Eclipse has not been comprimised. All is good here. Though if your password on the GTMP forums is the same as ANYTHING else, I'd advise you change it right away. 1
AnnoyingOne Posted July 19, 2017 Report Posted July 19, 2017 ooooh, I thought u were saying for eclipse too, I am sorry
Osborn Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 Yes, there should be some optional double authenticator process for when somebody on a different IP tries to access your account.
AnnoyingOne Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 Having to authenticate every day is not afun idea to me. I have dynamic ip that changes every day
Xylum Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 We could make it optional, similar to the forums. The fact of the matter is, your account is always at risk. Just don't be stupid and have common sense. My tips: Use a different password for everything that's important to you. I can't stress this enough, all it takes is for one of those websites to come under fire and you're exposed to everything. Use a password that does not have commonly used phrases. Use numbers, symbols and CaPiTaL variation. More than 7 characters. Do not use "123" in your password, or any other series of continued numbers. Examples of good passwords: S3ndM3T0R3H4B S3v3nCh4rs S1mpl1ctY Though, if you want your password to be "catsarecool123", just use an authenticator and don't lose your phone.
nateX Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) I would rather prefer a little password made out of 5 numbers, and a little keypad pop up, something like this Or I remember in SA:MP we had a keypad based on textdraws Edited July 21, 2017 by nateX
AnnoyingOne Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 u do realize that is very unsafe? Having 5 digot long passwords is unsafe

AnnoyingOne Posted July 21, 2017 Report Posted July 21, 2017 There is only 10^5 combinations, but when you use letters and special letters there is 40+^5 combinations
