Security lapse of Snapchat exploited by the hackers
Snap chat is considered to be one of the fastest social media apps of the present generation
which is designed to transfer the images, videos and instant messages which are also called the
snaps. But people are now accustomed to hear the news of Snapchat leaked, and they are now
speculating the days when the pictures or the snaps will be posted on the website.
Snapchat original server is said to be hacked and all the informations regarding the users are
leaked on the website of the SnapchatDB.info, as suggested by authentic sources. This news
raised eye-brows of many of its users, because with this important information being posted on
the websites, the accounts of user’s gmail, icloud and many others can also be hacked. Apart
from the mailing accounts the snaps of the users which have many private pictures, videos and
instant messages will now be visible in front of the world.
According to hackers
The hackers are putting the full blame on the Snap chat and its security. For such a popular app
the security arrangements were not at all safe, as suggested by the hackers. And with this hacking
it is being established as crystal clear fact. This hacking has rung the alarms bells for the apps
technical support team, and their reluctance towards the security arrangements is shown here.
With this security lapse it is proved that the device from which the people use to socialize with
its friends is not at all safe from spams also. And still after the disclosure of all the news of
security lapse, still the app was not unwilling to take any actions, as suggested by the hackers of
the SnapchatDB.info.
Snapchat’s answer
Snap chat is a modern generation social media app, which helps vanish all the snaps and drop
into the original server after only a few seconds of viewing. This viewing time is very limited
time, which may until 10 seconds.
But recently all the personal information like mailing id or the phone numbers are suggested to
be in the hands of the users, which puts the users in dire straits. And the authority of the apps
are putting the blaming on the usage of third party apps like Snapspy and many others which is
reason behind this crisis situation.
People’s reluctance in using Snapchat
Snap chat is among the very few social media apps that has such a huge fan base. But recently
it is in news due to lapse of security and this is mainly because of the reluctance of the users.
The users are mainly prone to using similar third part apps which is only reason for this lapse of
security, as suggested by the authority of the apps.
To sum up
Snapchat’s pictures and other related personal informations like the mailing account, phone
number and many more are now posted in the SnapchatDB.info. Hackers have done this to prove
the lapse in security of such an app with a huge fan base.
On the other hand, the app puts the blame on the usage of the third part apps like the Snapspy,
Snapbox and many others by its users.
