:alert:Anodot Breach Exposes Data from 12 Companies, Including Rockstar Games

Rockstar Games and 11 others hit in massive Anodot breach

On April 4, Anodot's data connectors stopped working, allowing hackers to steal authentication tokens used by customers to access cloud-stored data. This breach exposed customer data from at least 12 companies, including Rockstar Games, maker of Grand Theft Auto and Max Payne video games. The hackers, ShinyHunters, are known for targeting companies that store large amounts of data in cloud storage. In the past year, they focused on firms like Anodot, Gainsight, and Salesloft to steal passwords and tokens. This incident began when Anodot's data connectors stopped working on April 4. The stolen data sometimes contains tokens allowing hackers to breach other companies. Anodot helps corporate customers detect outages and issues affecting revenue.
