Digital Ocean customer emails leaked due to Mailchimp security issue

[Digital Ocean's Emails of Customers Leaked Due to Mailchimp Security Issues] Jinse Finance reported that cloud infrastructure provider Digital Ocean said that due to the recent "security incident" of email marketing company Mailchimp, some customers' email addresses were leaked.

Tyler Healy, head of security at DigitalOcean, said the company discovered that its Mailchimp account had been compromised on August 8 after it discovered that its emails, such as account confirmations and password resets sent through Mailchimp, had stopped being sent to its customers. Its investigation found that DigitalOcean's Mailchimp account was suspended without warning or explanation. An automated email from Mailchimp said the account had been temporarily disabled due to a violation of the Terms of Service. Mailchimp sent the same message to others working in the crypto industry, fueling speculation that the company had removed encrypted content-zce creators from its service.

Meanwhile, Healy said DigitalOcean's security team was informed by one of its customers who claimed their password had been reset without their consent.
