Just Dance data breach confirmed by Ubisoft

It doesn't appear that passwords were hijacked, but it pays to reinforce your own security.

Just Dance data breach has today been confirmed by Ubisoft.

The publisher has sent an email to those affected, saying that, “the data in question is limited to ‘technical identifiers’, which include your GamerTag, Profile ID and Device ID, as well as Just Dance videos that you recorded and uploaded to be shared publicly with the in-game community and/or on your social media profiles.”

Despite things like account passwords not appearing to be compromised, Ubisoft has nonetheless advised that players are encouraged to change passwords and activate 2-step verification.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
