Make sure that all of your passwords are unique, and hard to guess or crack. It’s never a good idea to reuse passwords, or to use passwords that can be easily cracked – such as dictionary words, or the names of your family members or pets. Perhaps even on the main Evernote service itself. Of course, it’s very possible that those users whose passwords have been put at risk could be using those same passwords elsewhere on the net. ![]() We are sending email notifications to all affected forum users detailing what was exposed. For all other forum members, only your email address and birthday, if you provided one, were taken. If you use that same password on other services today, please update it. If you created an account on our old forum in 2011 or earlier, then the hash of the password you used at that time was taken as part of this incident. We do not store your Evernote password on our discussion forum servers and you do not need to change it. ![]() The Evernote Service was not affected and your notes are still secure. Our forum is a completely separate service from the Evernote Service. We don’t believe that the hacker accessed any private forum messages. ![]() The hacker was able to retrieve our forum members’ profile information. The vendor that operates has notified us that they had been hacked. ![]() (Users impacted by this announcement will have received an email)
