Animoto, a cloud-based video maker service for social media sites, reveals a data breach. The breach occurred on July 10 but was confirmed by the company in early August, and later reported to the California attorney general. Names, dates of birth and user email addresses were accesed by the hackers, but the company said it wasn't known if data had been exfiltrated.
