Soundwave Data Breach
What Happened
In approximately mid 2015, the music tracking app Soundwave suffered a data breach. The breach stemmed from an incident whereby "production data had been used to populate the test database" and was then inadvertently exposed in a MongoDB. The data contained 130k records and included email addresses, dates of birth, genders and MD5 hashes of passwords without a salt.
