Fullerton Health server supporting migrant worker care programme hit by cybersecurity incident

On Tuesday, SPH Media said five of its systems were hit by cyberattacks, while food solutions provider SATS disclosed that Tappee, a school meal ordering application, had been affected by a cyber incident. 

“(The cyberattacks) are believed to be a concerted effort that was carried out by the same threat actor,” SPH Media told CNA. 

Some personal information, including email addresses, names, mailing addresses and phone numbers, was compromised, but not payment card details, financial or banking information, or customer account access. 

SATS said the Tappee incident involved “malicious access by an unauthorised external party”.

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

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

Four schools in Singapore currently use the app. In response to CNA’s query, SATS declined to name the schools “to protect the privacy and interests of affected students and families”.
