SINGAPORE: SPH Media has been hit by cyberattacks on five of its systems, but no customer financial information or account access was compromised, the company said on Tuesday (Nov 10).
“(The cyberattacks) are believed to be a concerted effort that was carried out by the same threat actor,” an SPH Media spokesperson said in response to CNA’s queries, without elaborating on the nature of the threat actor.
The cyberattacks hit two groups of SPH Media’s systems: one on systems that contained some personal data, and the other on systems that did not store any such data.
The compromised information included mostly email addresses, names, mailing addresses and phone numbers. This amounted to 9 per cent of the company’s database.
“No payment card details, financial or banking information, or customer account access was compromised,” said the spokesperson.
The SPH Media statement did not specify the extent of its database exposed by the cyberattacks that hit systems not containing personal data.
