Disney seems to have been hacked.
The leisure large is the obvious sufferer of a cybersecurity incident, with hackers claiming to posses a couple of terabyte of knowledge from the corporate.
“Disney is investigating this matter,” a spokesperson tells The Hollywood Reporter.
The hacktivist group “Nullbulge” is claiming accountability for the hack. The group describes itself as “a hacktivist group defending artists’ rights and making certain honest compensation for his or her work.”
The leaked data features a trove of inside communications from Disney, photographs, logins, studio data, advert campaigns and different data, nearly all showing to be from the Salesforce-owned communications platform Slack.
The incident is the newest in a string of cyberattacks which have focused media and telecom firms this yr. Within the spring, Roku stated that greater than half 1,000,000 accounts have been compromised in a knowledge breach.
In could, Ticketmaster proprietor Stay Nation stated that it had been the sufferer of an assault, with “prison menace actors” promoting person information on the darkish internet.
And earlier this month AT&T disclosed an astonishing incident through which “practically all” of its wi-fi clients had their name and textual content data obtained (although importantly the content material of the messages was not breached).
Each the Ticketmaster and AT&T hacks concerned a third-party cloud supplier known as Snowflake, although there isn’t a indication as of now that the Disney hack is linked.
Within the case of Nullbulge, the hacktivist group advised The Wall Avenue Journal it focused Disney “on account of the way it handles artist contracts, its method to AI, and it’s [sic] fairly blatant disregard for the buyer.”
