MSPs and Holyrood staff were warned on Tuesday that hackers were attempting to access numerous email accounts by systematically and repeatedly trying to crack their passwords. A similar attack targeted the accounts of MPs based in Westminster back in June. Such attacks are not sophisticated, they simply fling a large number of possible passwords one-by-one at a login page in the hope that sooner-or-later one might give them access to the account. Use a unique, hard-to-crack, complicated password to access your account.”]
