Summary
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has experienced a significant data breach orchestrated by the hacker group IntelBroker, which has exposed sensitive information, including source code, cryptographic materials, and personally identifiable information (PII). The hacker, known for previous security incidents, is selling the stolen data online for Monero cryptocurrency. IntelBroker claims this breach was a direct attack on HPE's infrastructure, rather than through third-party systems, and provided evidence of the compromise, including screenshots and a data tree from HPE's internal systems. This breach raises concerns about the security of HPE's products and follows prior incidents, including a 2024 breach linked to Russian state-sponsored hackers.
