Uber reiterates that personal data remains safe.
RelatedIn its update on the breach, Uber confirmed new details about the hack. The company said the attacker likely purchased an Uber contractor’s corporate password on the dark web after the contractor’s personal device had been infected with malware, exposing those credentials.
The hacker then accessed several other Uber employee accounts, gradually gaining more permissions to a number of internal company tools, including G Suite and Slack. The attacker thenand “reconfigured Uber’s OpenDNS to display a graphic image to employees on some internal sites,” the company said. Uber said it responded by forcing employees and contractors who had their accounts compromised to change their passwords and restricting them from certain internal systems until they had done so. It also rotated keys — effectively resetting access — to many of Uber’s internal services. And it locked down its own codebase, preventing any new code changes — though it claims to have not detected any changes as of yet.
First and foremost, we’ve not seen that the attacker accessed the production systems that power our apps; any user accounts; or the databases we use to store sensitive user information, like credit card numbers, user bank account info, or trip history. We also encrypt credit card information and personal health data, offering a further layer of protection.
