Nude stars cyber attack still unsolved

The cyber attack case that saw nude photos of celebrities including Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Upton posted online is still to be solved by authorities, one year on.

On August 31 last year, hundreds of explicit images of some of Hollywood’s most famous stars were posted to several forum websites anonymously after hackers broke into the iCloud accounts of more than 500 people, predominantly celebrities.

A piece of computer code that repeatedly guessed common passwords is said to have been used in the attack.
