A security breach within the Xero cloud-based accounting platform is raising concerns for some business users of the service. Reports Friday (Oct. 23) in Graham Cluley spotlighted the security breach, which was announced by Xero in an email to users.
“As we mentioned in our recent email, we have seen an increase in phishing scams, including some that have impersonated Xero’s branding,” the company stated. “Our monitoring has shown that a small number of our customers have had their Xero accounts compromised.”
