"Rogers Communications Data Allegedly Sold on a Hacker Forum"

Attackers are claiming that data for sale on the dark web belongs to Rogers Communications, a Canadian media giant that provides wireless, cable, and Internet services. The advertisement includes three of Rogers' Active Directory (AD) databases: users, groups, and devices. AD typically contains critical information about the company's environment, such as what users can do and which devices operate within the system. Rogers has confirmed that some of the company's information has been leaked onto the dark web. However, according to a company spokesperson, only employee information was compromised, and no customer information was included in the leaked database. Cybernews reviewed data samples from the three AD databases included in the advertisement, which contained customer names and surnames, phone numbers, email addresses, locations, company names, account launch dates, user device operating systems, user roles, device security statuses, and other sensitive data. While the samples do not include employee data, the Cybernews research team suspects that the AD could also contain information on the company's employees who use Rogers' network resources, since this information is typically stored in AD databases. This article continues to discuss the Rogers Communications data leak.
