Wyze camera breach impacts thousands

Security-camera maker Wyze has revealed a breach that allowed users to see into each other’s camera feeds has impacted thousands of people.

It was initially announced that the incident impacted 14 users, though in recent updates this number has risen to 13,000.

Customers were notified by email, as well as in a post on Wyze’s forum.

“As you know we had an outage this morning driven by an issue with our partner AWS,” wrote Dave Crosby, Wyze CMO and cofounder. “Cameras are starting to come back online for live viewing, but we are now restricting access to the Events tab while we investigate a possible security issue.

“We’re so sorry and will get your cameras fully recovered as soon as possible! We will also share results of our investigation.”
