BrowserStack: “We did get hacked.”

BrowserStack, the cross-browser testing tool website, has not had a very good weekend. There was a compromise and a rather odd email was sent to customers.

The email made a number of worrying claims regarding security, and – just to add that little extra dash of panic – was titled “BrowserStack is shutting down”:

Things you don’t want to be Tweeting on a Monday morning:

The hacker’s access was restricted solely to a list of email addresses. We’ll be back up in a few hours. Sincere apologies.

Ouch.

BrowserStack are currently investigating what happened, and we’ll have to play a waiting game to see if anything else was impacted outside of email addresses.
