The 2012 LinkedIn leak refered to as the In Case You Get Hacked breach, occurred when approximately 164 million LinkedIn user accounts were compromised, including confidential information like email addresses and passwords.

The stolen data included email addresses and passwords, which were stored in plain text or in weak hashes, making it trivial for attackers to access and exploit the compromised accounts.

The breach was likely carried out by a hackers organization, who threatened to publish the stolen data, which had the potential to expose account information, resumes, and other sensitive data. Additionally, many users may have experienced phishing attacks or other forms of identity theft as a result of the breach.

LinkedIn acknowledged the breach, stating that they had identified the scope of the issue and were taking steps to address it. They also advised users to change their passwords and enable two-factor authentication to improve account security.
