School meal ordering app Tappee hit by cybersecurity incident, says SATS; four schools affected


SINGAPORE: Tappee, a school meal ordering application that is currently used in four schools in Singapore, has been hit by a cybersecurity incident, said food solutions provider SATS on Tuesday (Nov 10).

SATS, which identified the incident, said it involved “malicious access by an unauthorised external party” to Tappee. 

Based on investigations so far, the types of data compromised include student names, email addresses, financial assistance statuses, student concession card numbers and certain parent and guardian email addresses, said SATS.

A small number of records also contained students’ height, weight, allergy profiles and caloric intake data.

“No banking or credit card information, or details or images of student identification documents, have been compromised, as such information was not collected through the Tappee application.”

Tappee will be temporarily unavailable as a precautionary measure as security reviews and remediation works are ongoing, said SATS, adding that school meal provision has not been affected.
