Wynn confirms breach after ShinyHunters deleted data

Wynn Resorts Confirms Data Breach After Hackers Remove It From Leak Site, with the incident linked to the ShinyHunters leak site, which had previously listed the resort but is now removed, suggesting data was deleted at the extortionists’ prompting. The company stated that “The unauthorized third party has stated that the stolen data has been deleted,” and that they are monitoring the situation and to date have not seen evidence that the data has been published or misused.

According to SecurityWeek, Wynn has been asked to confirm whether a ransom was paid, but the company has yet to respond. The breach appeared to involve employee data, but not customer operations. At least two lawsuits have already been filed against the resort in connection with the incident.
