• Any dashboard that you have access to gives someone that gains access, the ability to post to several accounts, is a prime target for hackers.
• It's funny because even the email from Twitter said, make sure that you reset your password makes you look through all the third party apps, it didn't really talk about not just looking at the third party apps that have authorization, but those trusted social media dashboards and third party websites that have the ability to post to also make sure you change the passwords there.
