Nvidia has suspended its software developer forum after attackers compromised an unknown number of the login passwords used by its 400,000-strong user community. The company described the breach as affecting “a small proportion” of the users but recommended that when the forum returns individuals change their logins. The passwords are encrypted and so are not in principle threatened but this assumes that those used are strong enough to survive brute-force recovery attempts by attackers. The last week has seen several password hacks, including a major incident that compromised 450,000 passwords on the Yahoo Voice VoIP system.”]
