The year 2013 may become known as the year of the hacker.
Following successful hacks of Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, and NBC's websites and servers, the servers of the popular multi-platform, note-taking web company Evernote have been hacked.
Evernote is requiring all its 50 million users to reset their passwords.
the company reminds all Evernote users of the usual precautions you should take with your security on any web service:
Avoid using simple passwords based on dictionary words.
Never use the same password on multiple sites or services.
Never click on "reset password" requests in emails — instead, go directly to the service.
Also, choosing the option to stay logged into Evernote for up to a week at a time is not a safe choice.
