"Privacy Breach: 13,000 Home Security Customers Given Unauthorized Access to Others' Homes"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by CNN
Wyze, a smart camera maker, experienced a security glitch last week that caused about 13,000 users to see footage from other users' cameras due to a third-party caching client library and an influx in demand. The company blamed the incident on a system error and has added a new layer of verification to prevent it from happening again. This is not the first security incident for Wyze, as a data leak in 2019 exposed millions of customer email addresses and other sensitive information.
