A hacker organization claiming to possess more than 1TB of Walt Disney's data purportedly caused a data breach at the firm. A hacker collective known as Nullbulge is said to have leaked information from thousands of Slack conversations within the massive entertainment company, according to a Wall Street Journal investigation. This contained computer code, some login information, and details about Disney's next initiatives, among other things.

What does the hacker say?

According to the article, Nullbulge claimed to have dumped "every message and file possible" by gaining access to "almost 10,000 channels." The group does not want to be identified, but one of its goals is to support the rights of artists. The organization was inspired to attack the entertainment corporation, according to the Wall Street Journal story, by the company's artist contracts, "approach to AI," and "blatant disregard for the consumer".

The Nullbulge gang disclosed the material using its X account. It posted a link to the material and stated, "#Disney has had their whole dev slack leaked. 1.1TB of files and chat messages. Anything we could get our hands on, we downloaded and packed. Want to witness what happens behind closed doors? "Go get it."

Disney is allegedly looking into the problem.

AT&T allegedly paid a hacker $370,000 to remove millions of stolen customer details. According to Wired, the Bitcoin payment was part of a bargain to ensure the erasure of sensitive client data gathered during a massive security breach. The incident, which took place between May 2022 and January 2023, revealed call and text message metadata for millions of AT&T subscribers. While AT&T asserts that the stolen data did not include message content or customer names, a security researcher discovered that reverse lookups might possibly identify persons linked with the hacked phone numbers.
