(Reuters) — Data of 18,000 people claimed to be customers of Italian payments firm Nexi have been published on a foreign website, but no financial information was disclosed, Nexi said on Tuesday.
The company said in a statement that no breach of its information technology systems had been detected, and that in many cases the data published did not match Nexi’s records.
It said the source of the post, now removed, was anonymous and that the incident had been reported to the competent authorities.
(Reuters) — Personal data and documents from hundreds of German politicians and public figures have been published online, in what appears one of the most far-reaching cyberattacks in a country that has become a target of choice for hackers.
