Evernote users’ passwords hacked
LONDON » Online note-taking service Evernote Corp. says it has been hacked and is resetting all its 50 million users’ passwords as a precaution.
The Redwood City, Calif.-based company said in a post published late Saturday that an attacker was able to access sensitive customer information and that all users would have their accounts reset "in an abundance of caution."
Evernote says the attacker was able to access an unspecified number of customers’ encrypted passwords.
Coke CEO’s compensation $21.6M
NEW YORK » Coca-Cola Co. gave Chairman and CEO Muhtar Kent a pay package worth $21.6 million last year, as the world’s biggest beverage maker navigated shifting drinking habits in the U.S. and sold more of its drinks overseas.
The compensation is up from the $21.2 million Kent received in 2011, according to an Associated Press analysis.
The bump in pay was mostly the result of Kent’s salary of $1.6 million, which was up 15 percent from the previous year.
Stock and option awards were about even at $13.1 million. Incentive pay, which is tied to the company’s performance, was unchanged at $6 million. All other compensation came to $963,816 and included costs for use of the company plane, a car and driver, and contributions to retirement plans.
