Ad Network Sizmek Probes Account Breach

Online advertising firm Sizmek Inc. [NASDAQ: SZMK] says it is investigating a security incident in which a hacker was reselling access to a user account with the ability to modify ads and analytics for a number of big-name advertisers.

In a recent posting to a Russian-language cybercrime forum, an individual who's been known to sell access to hacked online accounts kicked off an auction for "the admin panel of a big American ad platform."

"You can add new users to the ad system, edit existing ones and ad offers," the seller wrote. The starting bid was $800.
