The WarZ hack recently was an unfortunate thing but user details weren’t compromised according to OP Productions, the publisher of the game. The same thing happened with the PSN hack but that was a massive attack which Sony successfully dodged but there were no reports of compromised credit card details.

“We did not find definitive evidence that our game account database was accessed. They were able to ban up to several dozens of players randomly,” the publisher’s statement read (via Eurogamer)

“We disabled the hacked accounts, identified the wrongly banned players and reversed those bans within hours of the attack. We are continuing to invest significant resources to make our system even more secure.

“We all know that the online world is never 100 per cent secure against aggressive and sophisticated hackers. This experience has been a humbling one for your War Z Team. We have recommitted ourselves to providing a secure and enjoyable game for our players. We will keep working to improve our game and our security in keeping with that commitment. We are sincerely sorry that this incident occurred and greatly appreciate the loyalty of our players.”

This is good news for people who were worried about their details being compromised, since it doesn’t look like it was.

The War Z forums have been hacked according to an alert posted by OP Productions.

There’s a lot of things that have been exposed like email addresses, forum passwords, game passwords, in-game character names and IP addresses. This seems like a full blown hack.

However, credit card numbers should not be exposed because OP Productions have said that they use a third party for it.

They have told users to change their passwords and also revealed that according to their research they were not using strong passwords.

“This has been a humbling experience for us. While we all know that there is no guaranty [sic] of security on the internet, our goal is to try our very best to protect your data. We sincerely apologize.”
