Heartbleed
Heartbleed is a computer bug that happened in 2014 that affected websites and computers around the world. Bugs are errors in computer programs that can cause problems. What made Heartbleed so tricky was that it was very difficult to detect. The bug was found in a popular security tool that many websites used to keep information safe.
The Heartbleed bug allowed hackers to steal sensitive information that was supposed to be kept private. This included usernames, passwords, and even credit card numbers.
The bug was fixed, but it’s important to use caution online. Make sure to use strong passwords and be careful with what information you share on the internet.
