Spotify’s systems under hacker attack: the official blog admits the problem. How to proceed in these hours?
In recent days, several major web and app players have been experiencing security attacks.
It happened last week to eBay, and today it has been learned that Spotify has also fallen into the hackers’ crosshairs.
This is not a rumor or a hypothesis but a full admission by the company itself, which announced it via the music platform’s official blog.
Currently, technicians are working to fix a security flaw that particularly affects only Android users; all others – web users, iOS users, and Windows Phone users – can apparently consider themselves safe.
So, what should you do to avoid risks due to the Spotify hacker attack?
The first useful action is to update the application to the latest available version.
Secondly, you will need to wait for the problem to be resolved by the staff working on it right now.
Once this phase is completed, you will automatically receive an email from the official Spotify account inviting you to change your password.
According to what can be understood from the indications found on the company blog, changing your access credentials now – before the technicians finish their work – would be useless.
Therefore, you will need to wait a few more hours to be able to consider yourself safe again.
