After sports administration suffered a data breach and the hackers threatened to leak personal data, SportAdmin now confirms that sensitive information has been published.
“As we have always feared and acted from the outside, it includes sensitive personal data,” writes Jennie Everhed, communicator at Lime Technologies who owns SportAdmin.
You regret what has happened and write that you understand that the situation is tough for the associations and their members.
“Unfortunately, we can now confirm that parts of the data stolen in connection with the cyberattack have been published by the hot actor. As we have always feared and acted from the outside, sensitive personal data is included. We have not been in contact with the threat actor in accordance with the directives we received from police and experts, and therefore know no more than that at present, ”Jennie Everhed writes to TV4 News.
The associations have been informed about the situation and Everhed writes that together with the associations, all the legal measures can be taken, when personal data falls into wrong hands.
“Now it is primarily a police case and we can only appeal to everyone’s common sense, not to download or otherwise disseminate these stolen tasks as it further aggravates the damage to those affected.”
