Plex Urges Password Resets After Customer Data Breach

🔒 Plex reports an unauthorized third party accessed a limited subset of customer authentication data, including email addresses, usernames, and securely hashed passwords. The company says it quickly contained the incident and that no payment card information was stored on its servers. Because Plex did not disclose the hashing algorithm used, it recommends users reset their passwords, enable two‑factor authentication, and use the “Sign out connected devices after password change” option to terminate active sessions. Plex reminded customers it will never request passwords or card details by email.
