Disney appears to have been hacked.

As a follow up to this post, the hactivist group dumped just over 1 TB of data from this breach (or was it). While all the data hasn't yet been reviewed by those who have accessed it, there is still no sign of customer specific information being compromised. This however, is not the only concerning thing. The hactivist group in their last post where they shared the link for the data dump, indicated that they were assisted by an 'insider' or what can only be interpreted as a Disney employee. Humans have always been classified as the weakest link in cyber security. No state of the art cyber security solution can mitigate from writing down passwords, reusing passwords, sharing accounts with other employees, leaving servers logged on, and the list goes on. But the weakest part which can trump all of the above is a disgruntled employee with privileged access. Hell hath no fury than a network admin scorned. Not saying that the person here was indeed a network admin, but you get the drift. Being able to keep an account and audit (and get alerts), of the activities of those with network privilege needs to be a big part of an overall cyber strategy. While this might not be avoidable for #reasons, there really should not be anyone with God Mode sitting on your network. #DisneySlackLeak #NullBulge
https://lnkd.in/eVwcbMRX "The leaked information includes a trove of internal communications from Disney, images, logins, studio information, ad campaigns and other information, almost all appearing to be from the Salesforce-owned communications platform Slack." This may not be customer specific information but still a cause for concern. You can never tell what else could have been impacted and whether Disney is divulging all info. Would be best to keep updated on this if you may have visited Disney or used any of their online services for payment.

Is the next pandemic a Cyberattack? Of course many people will laugh about it. Covid was already simulated with event 201 way ahead before it even happened, here the link: https://lnkd.in/e5vYzqMN And look also at operation lockstep in 2010 from the Rockefeller Foundation with a complete scenario on Covid. And also the Cyberattack has been predicted in 2020, happening by the end of 2024. Here a link: https://lnkd.in/eM-3NbuW Also Hackattack is inside of that same Lockstep report. And as we have had a simulation on Covid with Event 201 we have the same with Event Cyber Polygon, here have a look: https://cyberpolygon.com So we have been warned and it is not a coincidence that Netflix most popular movie now is about the same Cyber attack. The most powerful people in this world know exactly what they must do to control us human beings. On Covid we have been facing already how easily people can be controlled in this world and that our personal freedom means nothing. But Covid was just a foreshadow of what to come. I hope this time that more people will investigate the truth and not like Covid, where the unvaccinated people were seen as the evil people in this world by the majority who just blindly follow our ‘authorities’. We are warned! https://lnkd.in/eikxcXfY eens!

MPA Has Big Plans To Crack Down on Movie Piracy Again: The Motion Picture Association is going off on piracy again. During CinemaCon in Las Vegas, MPA CEO Charles Rivkin announced that the organization plans on working with Congress to pass rules blocking websites with pirated content. The Verge: The MPA is a trade association representing Hollywood studios, including Paramount, Sony, Universal, and Disney (it's also behind the ratings board that gives you an R if you say curse words too often). It has long lobbied for anti-piracy laws, but it seems the battle is heating up again. In his speech on Tuesday, Rivkin highlights what a major problem piracy in the US has become, saying it costs "hundreds of thousands of jobs" and "more than one billion in theatrical ticket sales." It's true: piracy has gone up in recent years. A report from piracy data analytics company Muso revealed that video piracy websites around the globe received 141 billion visits in 2023, making for a 12 percent increase when compared to 2019. The US and India made up most of these visits. But at the same time, the price to subscribe to a streaming service is higher than ever, and so is the cost of a movie ticket. The solution to stopping piracy, at least in Rivkin's eyes, is to prevent users from accessing piracy websites altogether. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

A hacktivist group named NullBulge claims to have breached Disney's IT systems, stealing 1.1 terabytes of data from nearly 10,000 internal Slack channels. The stolen data includes project details, messages, files, code, social security numbers, login credentials, and personal photographs. NullBulge, which aims to protect artists' rights, disclosed the breach earlier than planned due to an insider expelling them from the system. This breach could have significant ramifications for Disney's business plans and partner relationships. NullBulge's motivation may relate to past criticisms of Disney for unpaid royalties to writers of properties like Star Wars and Alien. This incident highlights a trend of entertainment companies being targeted by hackers willing to expose stolen information.
