Casio confirms customer data compromised in ransomware attack
Reading Time: < 1 minutesJapanese electronics giant Casio has confirmed that a ransomware attack earlier this month resulted in the theft of customer data.
Casio first confirmed on October 7 it had been hit by a cyberattack, but at the time did not reveal the nature of the incident that caused unspecified ‘system disruption’ across the company. In an updated statement on Friday, the Tokyo-based electronics giant confirmed that it had been the victim of ransomware.
Casio’s statement confirms that the attackers accessed personal information belonging to Casio employees, contractors, business partners, and people who have interviewed for the company, along with sensitive company data including invoices, human resources files, and some technical information belonging to the company.
Hackers also accessed ‘information about some customers,’ Casio said, but did not state which types of data had been accessed or how many individuals are so far affected.
Casio ruled out a compromise of credit card information, saying its Casio ID and ClassPad services were unaffected by the breach.
In its updated statement, Casio said the ‘full extent of the damage’ caused by the ransomware is still being investigated. Some Casio systems remain ‘unusable,’ according to the company.
