What happened?
A security flaw is being blamed for a third-party data breach that has exposed the information of more than 35 million Xfinity customers. The internet provider reports stolen information that includes names, contact info, last four digits of Social Security numbers, and secret questions and answers. If exploited, cybercriminals can use this information to commit identity theft.

Yeah, it's insane. All the big data that got collected is now getting stolen because the collectors are too focused on MOAR PROFFITZ to actually pay attention to security needs, including proper patching regimens.
