Data Breach Analysis

Twitter, a global social media platform, experienced two breaches, potentially exposing user credentials, private communications, and other sensitive data. Such incidents can have wide-reaching consequences for individuals, including account takeovers and privacy violations, while also posing reputational risks for the platform itself.

All Loss Less operates in the retail space, as does Flipkart, a major e-commerce giant. Data breaches in this sector can compromise customer information, leading to financial fraud, phishing attempts, and a loss of consumer trust, which impacts business operations and brand integrity.

United Colors of Benetton, a well-known fashion brand, and Selly, an e-commerce platform, also suffered breaches, highlighting vulnerabilities in the fashion and online sales industries. The exposure of customer data can affect both consumers and retailers by increasing the risk of identity theft and undermining confidence in digital shopping experiences.

Spotlight

A streaming site' user-base has made an appearance on the dark web. The file, which is over 7GB, contains a huge amount of user data and millions of unique email addresses. Usernames and device information are just a couple of data types in the breach. The site has been running for 10 years and is available throughout Europe and Russia. The data was for sale only two months ago but is now in circulation for publicly.

A huge South Asian shopping site that suffered a data breach back in September has been dumped online. We're surprised to see the data available publicly so soon after the data breach. The company was launched back in 2007 to sell books and now is a leading e-commerce site with over 80 million different products for sale. Over 500K email addresses, geo-locations and mobile numbers were compromised.

A quick update on Medibank after their huge data breach, let's say it definitely hasn’t been a good year for Australian security techies. Up till now only a sample of the data was released, however, now the full dump has seen the light of day. They didn’t pay the ransom and the group kept to their word.
