The European Commission has announced that it suffered a cyber attack that affected “cloud infrastructure hosting the Commission’s web presence on the Europea.eu platform.” While the attack has been contained, Bleeping Computer reports that the threat actor claiming to be behind it was able to take over 350GB of data before the Commission addressed the issue.
“Early findings of our ongoing investigation suggest that data have been taken from [Europa] websites,” the European Commission says. “The Commission is duly notifying the Union entities who might have been affected by the incident.”
