Epic Games was the victim of a hacker attack
Epic Games, the developer of Fortnite, has been attacked by hackers and 200 GB of data has been stolen.
Epic Games, the developer of Fortnite, has faced a hacker attack during which almost 200 gigabytes of data have been stolen from the company. Mogilevich, the group responsible for this attack has made such a claim; However, Epic has not yet responded to this claim.
Hacked information includes email, password, full name, payment information, source code and other information; However, it is unclear whether this information is related to Epic Games customers or employees, or both. This ransomware group is extorting money for the return of data or wants to sell it to another group. The final date of payment is March 4 (March 14).
The group has not yet provided proof of its hack; But apparently, last month they were able to hack a subset of Nissan, the car manufacturer. Recently, ransomware attacks have affected several companies in the video game industry. In the most recent example, Insomniac Games, the developer of Spider-Man, faced these attacks, during which information about the company's employees and future development plans were spread across the Internet.
In October 2023, the European police claimed to have destroyed the hacker group responsible for the attack on Capcom. That group also disclosed the confidential information of the employees and the future development plans of the Japanese publisher.
