Info Tech Lead
US-based satellite television giant Dish has confirmed that hackers stole the personal information of about 300,000 employees in a ransomware attack in February, TechCrunch reported.
The company said in a data breach notification filed with Maine’s attorney general last week that while customer databases were unaffected, hackers accessed hundreds of thousands of employee-related records during the cyber attack.
Dish, which employs nearly 16,000 people, stated that former employees, employees’ family members and a limited number of other individuals were affected by the data breach. Dish did not name of the hacker.
