Yahoo said Tuesday that the number of accounts impacted by a massive security breach in 2013 was three times larger than it had originally announced — meaning all accounts were affected.

Roughly 3 billion accounts were breached, the company now says, up from its earlier estimate of more than 1 billion.

The company has yet to disclose the cause of the breach. The new information emerged after Verizon Communications Inc., which purchased Yahoo’s Internet properties for $4.48 billion in June, received more intelligence about the breach with the help of outside forensic experts.

Analysts believe this is the world’s largest security breach based on the number of accounts affected. Some consumer advocates said it was inexcusable that the information was just being released now.
