Reset Passwords

After resetting passwords, mark them as completed above.

Investigate Source

These credentials may have been stolen from your website's customer database. Check if any unusual access or if your web store plugin is up to date.

According to our records, you use WooCommerce – ensure you have the latest patch from April.

Notify Affected Individuals

Inform your staff (Alice, Sales team) about this incident and ensure they do not reuse that password elsewhere.

If this password was used for other accounts (bank, etc.), change there too.

Report

If you suspect customer data may also be involved, you should notify those customers and consider informing Florida authorities if more than 500 individuals are affected.

At this stage, only 2 internal accounts are known, so formal notification may not be required.

Future Prevention

We recommend enabling two-factor authentication for all your company email accounts to mitigate damage from password leaks.

Also, schedule a thorough site security audit – you can use our vulnerability scan feature.
