Infosecurity Magazine reports:
Carmaker Renault has been forced to notify an unspecified number of customers that their personal data may have been compromised by threat actors.
A notice posted to X (formerly Twitter) by security researcher Troy Hunt said a supplier was targeted in the incident.
“We are very sorry to inform you about a cyber-attack on one of our third-party providers, leading to some Renault UK customers’ personal data being taken from one of their systems,” it said.
“The third-party provider established that your data was included.”
Although no financial data or passwords appear to have been taken, the threat actors did manage to compromise:
- First and last name
- Gender
- Phone number
- Email and postal address
- Vehicle identification and registration number
