   THE HACKERS BEHIND the Ashley Madison breach appear to have   
   upped their game, if that was even possible, by taking direct   
   aim at the company’s top executive, Noel Biderman, CEO of Avid   
   Life Media, AshleyMadison’s parent company.   
      
   On the heels of releasing 10 gigabytes of data on Tuesday, they   
   released a new, bigger batch of data that’s about 20 gigabytes   
   worth of compressed files. And while the first batch mostly   
   exposed Ashley Madison’s covert customers, this latest may prove   
   to be more embarrassing to the company’s executives. Judging by   
   the file names in the latest dump, they appear to include email   
   spools belonging to Ashley Madison’s top executive. One file   
   bears the name noel.biderman.mail.7z, a likely reference to   
   Biderman.   
      
   The new release is accompanied by the note: “Hey Noel, you can   
   admit it’s real now.” The message is likely a response to   
   assertions made by the company’s former CTO this week, who tried   
   hard to convince reporters after the first leak occurred that   
   the data dump was fake.   
      
   Notice the hackers signed the new message with their PGP key to   
   prove their identity.
