According to Revolut, last week was observed hacker login who gained access to certain information for a very short time


It was her turn Revolut to fall victim hacking, although in this case the characterization is probably quite harsh since the attackers failed to seriously affect the systems and gain access to very sensitive financial data of the users.

According to Revolut, last week saw a hacker entry that gained access to some information for a very short period of time. The intrusion was quickly detected and contained, while only 0.16% of users were affected which has already been informed by the company with relevant email to change their passwords. The exact numbers they gave are for 50.150 users worldwide, of which 20.687 are European residents.

The information the hackers got was names, home addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, user IDs and some of the card numbers, as the entire number is encrypted. This means they could not access the passwords, PINs, wallet, wallet and financial information of those affected.

The Revolut breach was not due to a security flaw or negligence, but through phishing attacks that tricked users. The email stated that the Revolut was the victim of a cyber attack and tricked them into clicking on a link to cancel their cards.

Attention: If you received an email from Revolut, it would be a good idea to change your password.
