EMPHASIS:
The cybersecurity of the supply chain
On 20 May, cybercriminals stole terabytes of personal data from Ticketmaster, the digital ticketing service for live events, putting them up for sale online. Santander bank in Chile, Spain, the USA and Uruguay also suffered illegitimate access to ‘the bank accounts of 30 million customers’, according to the criminals. The same happened to more than 160 other organisations. In common, they were all clients of the cloud company Snowflake, which has denied having suffered any attack of this scale on its network. The criminals, referred to as ShinyHunters, later disclosed they had accessed several suppliers with links to Snowflake accounts, namely an employee of EPAM Systems, a Belarusian software company that is a partner of Snowflake. Mandiant confirmed illegal access to the cloud company via compromised customer credentials; for EPAM, however, it was all just an invention by the attackers.
