Webcrossing servers not affected by CyberVor Hacking

You may have read the news about the huge password hacking recently uncovered, in which an estimated 1.2 billion username/password pairs on over 420,000 sites around the world have been stolen by hacking teams operating out of central Russia since 2011.

The security breaches made use of a technique known as “SQL injection.”

All our Webcrossing servers are immune to this kind of attack because we do not use SQL. Instead, Webcrossing servers use a special NoSQL object-oriented database.

So we wanted to reassure our hosted and self-hosted customers who use Webcrossing native authentication that their login information is secure.
