THE ShinyHunters extortion group has allegedly leaked data from Charter Communications, including over 42 million customer records available on a Tor site. However, only 4.9 million individuals are likely affected according to data breach notification site HaveIBeenPwned. The leaked data includes names, addresses, phone numbers, and records associated with employee accounts.
Charter Communications, one of the largest broadband providers in the US, stated that only sales tools were impacted and no sensitive personal information was released. ShinyHunters has a history of targeting high-profile organizations, including Salesforce customers.
