CenturyLink is a fortune 500 company that offers network service, security, cloud solutions, voice and managed services. They were beached for close to a year. Over 2.8 million records were looked at. They got all their personal information which could be used for phishing.

So last week I found this article that suggested that there was a fake Apple Light cable that would charge your phone but as soon as you hooked it to computer a hacker could have control over it. Well they have mass produced them and they are. They are being produced by MG and Hack5 has helped them with production. There is so many different directions you can look at this chasing this down it could drive you crazy. Apples suggestion and mine would be only buy Apple manufactured products. Who knows Apple could be behind the whole thing to keep people buying products directly through them?
Things that make you go HMM
