Internet of Things Teddy Bear Leaked 2 Million Parent and Kids Message Recordings - Motherboard

'The exposed data included more than 800,000 emails and passwords, which are secured with the strong, and thus supposedly harder to crack, hashing function bcrypt. '

'Gevers said he found the database online in late December and tried to alert the company of the risks of leaving such data exposed online. '

'During the time the data was exposed, at least two security researchers, and likely malicious hackers, got their hands on it. '

'The voice messages themselves were not in the database, according to the researchers. '

'A company that sells internet-connected teddy bears that allow kids and their far-away parents to exchange heartfelt messages left more than 800,000 customer credentials, as well as two million message recordings, totally exposed online for anyone to see and listen. '
