SPOTLIGHT

A large e-commerce platform based in China, known for facilitating direct purchases from producers and vendors in China, has experienced a significant data breach. The breach, which occurred recently, resulted in the exposure of sensitive user data, which has been widely circulated on various black-hat cybercrime forums. A well-known threat actor in the underground community reportedly assisted in the breach and is currently engaged in hacking activities.

Meanwhile, a leading analytics software company headquartered in Montana, USA, has also faced a data breach, with the compromised data reposted on underground forums. Despite the breach occurring some time ago, the exposure of data sets containing personal information like full names and dates of birth is concerning and could impact the company's reputation.

In a surprising turn of events, the infamous ransomware gang Lockbit has indicated its intention to venture into another criminal activity area: Violence as a Service (VaaS). While VaaS has been present in the dark web landscape for years, often associated with dubious hitmen-for-hire services, Lockbit's interest in this domain raises eyebrows. However, it remains unclear how serious this plan is or if it's merely a provocative statement.

INFORMATION PRIVACY HEADLINES

Bipartisan efforts are underway to strengthen privacy protections for Americans' personal data. Lawmakers from both Democratic and Republican parties have crafted legislation aimed at requiring consumer consent before companies can collect or transfer certain types of information. The proposed bill seeks to enhance transparency regarding data collection and retention policies, requiring companies to notify consumers and seek permission for significant changes.
