AT&T is finally resetting passcodes for current customers after hackers stole a trove of customer data more than two years ago.
The passcodes are usualy four-digit numbers used to help verify customer accounts when they are being accessed by customers or AT&T support staff. No account passwords were compromised in the breach.
Although the passcodes and other information were encrypted, it remains possible to decipher the data. In addition to the passcodes, the data leaked includes customer names, dates of birth, home addresses, phone numbers, and Social Security numbers.
