If you’ve played the game DayZ, you might want to log into your account and change your password as Bohemia Interactive, the developers of the game have now reported that the game’s forum have been hacked.
According to the developers, all username, password and emails from the forum.dayzgame.com where hacked by hackers. Bohemia Interactive have since issued an apology explaining what they will be doing in the future so that such things will not be happening again.
Here is the full version of their apology.
We would like to apologize for the inconvenience caused, and share with you one of the major changes planned in order to mitigate similar risks in the future. We will be replacing the IPBoards login system with Bohemia Account within the next two weeks. As Bohemia Account is a separate custom-built service currently used by Bohemia Interactive Forums and Store, it offers much better security and its use should prevent similar incidents going forward.
We ask for your patience over the next few days and weeks as we implement this and other security overhauls, as there are likely to be service interruptions and forum unavailability from time to time. In particular, the forums will be down until migration to the Bohemia Account is complete. We will keep you up to date on vital info and scheduled down-time on the site itself and via our Twitter.
