From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. A data breach is the intentional or unintentional release of secure information to an untrusted environment. Other terms for this phenomenon include unintentional information disclosure, data leak and also data spill. Incidents range from concerted attack by black hats with the backing of organized crime or national governments to careless disposal of used computer equipment or data storage media.

Yahoo says it discovered the billion-account breach with the help of law enforcement, which shared with the company a trove of stolen user data that it had uncovered.
