The operations and security team is keen to point out that  there is no evidence that any stored notes and content was accessed, but  that some user information -- including passwords and emails -- were.  The data breached does benefit from one-way encryption (hashed and  salted), but the firm is issuing a site-wide password reset just in  case. In short, all users of the site will be required to set a new  password, and are advised to log-in as soon as possible to do so. For  more details and updates, we suggest keeping a close eye on Evernote's  official blog and twitter. Both of which can be found below.</div></div>
