Not sure if anyone posted this yet. From AMD's blog site:

AMD Blog Site Back Online, No External Users Exposed
As you probably noticed, our AMD blogs were down for approximately 24 hours. Our blog site was the target of an attack on August 19th. We believe that the attackers posted fewer than 200 AMD employee usernames and salted password hashes to a hacker website.

AMD only uses salted password hashes, which is an industry best practice for encryption and extremely difficult to crack. We immediately took the blog site offline and changed all passwords.

We do not store any customer or personal user information, or any AMD employment data, on the blog site. Again, the only data exposed were less than 200 AMD employee email addresses and their accompanying encrypted passwords. Please note that no AMD customer information was retrieved or affected – meaning no external users were exposed in any way. AMD remains committed to data security and user privacy and has launched an investigation into this matter.

We don’t anticipate any other issues with our blog site and expect to have new content up shortly. In the meantime, feel free to visit our Facebook page.
