Revolut confirms cyberattack exposed personal data of tens of thousands of usersĪdvanced, an IT service provider for the U.K.’s NHS, confirmed in October that attackers stole data from its systems during an August ransomware attack. In a message sent to affected customers, the company said that “no card details, PINs or passwords were accessed.” However, Revolut’s data breach disclosure states that hackers likely accessed partial card payment data, along with customers’ names, addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers. The company also declined to say what types of data were accessed. However, according to Revolut’s breach disclosure, the company says 50,150 customers were impacted by the breach, including 20,687 customers in the European Economic Area and 379 Lithuanian citizens.

Not only is it unusual to be offered news of an undisclosed breach before it’s announced, it was even stranger to have the company decline to answer nearly every question about the news it wanted us to break. In August, DoorDash approached TechCrunch with an offer to exclusively report on a data breach that exposed DoorDash customers’ personal data. Nvidia says hackers are leaking company data after cyberattack attack According to data breach monitoring website Have I Been Pwned, the hackers stole the credentials of more than 71,000 Nvidia employees, including email addresses and Windows password hashes.

While we’ve seen some excellent examples of how companies should respond to data breaches over the past year - kudos to Red Cross and Amnesty for their transparency - 2022 has been a year-long lesson in how not to respond to a data breach.
