We've recently learned that it is probable that in 2009 the intruders obtained a copy of a database with information about Steam transactions between 2004 and 2008. So, it WAS 3 years ago that the data was stolen, and that data was 4-8 years old (or, 1-5 years old at the time it was stolen). It became obvious to everyone that something had happened in Nov 2011- what's not clear is how soon Valve knew something had happened.
edit- Re-reading the email they say they became aware of it on Nov 6 2011. So, it apparently took the intruders 2 years to do something with the database. the intruders were probably using credentials of someone from valve to access the database. what would be interesting to know is does valve regularly check who retrieves backup files. if they were careful that backup database should have been on a separate system with full audit enabled. but it seems they have no idea who took it and with what credentials since they dont know how deep the damage goes. |
