Jake Moore, Security Specialist at ESET: 

“This is an enormous database of passwords available to anyone who may want to get their hands on it. This shouldn’t be shrugged off as just another breach. When passwords are compromised, they are usually scrambled (hashed) but with this tool, there is a good chance that any cybercriminal would be able to reverse engineer it into the original password. You should not use passwords that are likely to have been used before – and that means by you or anyone else. Passwords are best kept unique and long in case they are ever breached. “
