BeatStars, a marketplace for selling music production beats, has disclosed a security breach today. In a Periscope live stream shared on Twitter, Abe Batshon, BeatStars CEO revealed that the mysterious cause of the site's downtime on Monday was an unauthorized access of its servers.

The BeatStars CEO said his team continues to investigate the incident and they've notified authorities. He also promised an update on what the hacker had accessed.

Right now, based on screenshots of the BeatStars website shared online, the incident resulted in a mass-defacement of the site.
BeatStars did not respond for a request for additional info on its investigation ZDNet sent before this article's publication.
