27 January 2017
We have been notified that there has been a data breach for https://www.english-corpora.org,
and that some emails and passwords that people use to log in to the corpora may
have been stolen. We emailed all users of the BYU corpora to let them know about
this as soon as we found out, on 27 January 2017.
|
If
the password that you use for the BYU corpora is the same one that you
use for other sites (e.g. Gmail or another email provider), we strongly
suggest that you change your password for the other sites as soon as
possible. |
If the password is used only for the BYU corpora, we still suggest that you
change your password. If it has not been
changed in the last year, you will be asked to change the password
the next time you log on to a corpus.
Please be assured that we take the security of your data very seriously, and
that we have already implemented (and will continue to implement) additional
measures to prevent other such incidents.
