Summary
Cybersecurity firm Cylance, now owned by BlackBerry, confirmed a data breach involving 34 million emails and other personally identifiable information, which is currently being sold on the dark web. The hacker, known as Sp1d3r, who also sold data from Advance Auto Parts, is demanding $750,000 for this database. BlackBerry Cylance emphasized that the compromised data is old, from a period between 2015-2018, predating BlackBerry's acquisition of Cylance, and stated that no current customers or sensitive information were involved. The breach was not linked to Snowflake, a cloud service provider associated with the Advance Auto Parts hack.
