      Earlier this summer, Yahoo said it was investigating a data breach in which hackers claimed to have access to 200 million user accounts. The hack became known in August when an infamous cyber criminal named Peace said on a website that he was selling credentials of 200 million Yahoo users from 2012 on the dark web for just over $1,800.
