Massive Data Breach Exposes VPN Users

May 26, 2023
Reading Time: 1 min read
in Incidents

A recent cybersecurity incident uncovered a massive data breach in a non-password-protected database associated with SuperVPN, a popular free VPN service. The exposed database contained a staggering 360,308,817 records, revealing sensitive information such as user email addresses, IP addresses, geolocation data, and server usage records.

This breach also exposed secret keys, Unique App User ID numbers, and UUID numbers that can potentially compromise further user data.

SuperVPN, which claims not to store user logs, contradicts its own policy as evidenced by the leaked data. This incident highlights the concerning reality that many free VPN services may prioritize data collection over user privacy.

As the demand for VPN services continues to rise, users must exercise caution when selecting a provider and consider factors such as data collection policies, transparency, encryption strength, and user reviews.

While SuperVPN has faced previous accusations of leaking user information, this latest breach underscores the need for increased awareness and vigilance when choosing a VPN service.

With the proliferation of unreliable VPN apps in the market, users must prioritize their online safety by conducting thorough research and taking necessary precautions to protect their personal data from potential breaches.
