Every single DayZ player had their personal information stolen today

If you are a DayZ player, you may want to consider changing your personal security information. Bohemia Interactive announced that “all usernames, email and passwords from forums.dayzgame.com were accessed and downloaded by hackers".

Bohemia has begun notifying the DayZ player base, and the company has shut down the forums until further notice as a result. They stated that the passwods were not stored in plain text, but encrypted in a more secure form. Even still, obviously change your personal information as soon as possible. There is no timetable for the forums to be back up as Bohemia is working on more secure encryption in order to avoid future attacks. We'll update you as we hear more. Take a look at the email Bohemia is sending out below.
