Taiwanese networking equipment manufacturer D-Link confirmed a data breach linked to information stolen from its network and put up for sale on BreachForums earlier this month.
The attacker claims to have stolen source code for D-Link's D-View network management software, along with millions of entries containing personal information of customers and employees, including details on the company's CEO. The stolen data allegedly includes names, emails, addresses, phone numbers, account registration dates, and the users' last sign-in dates.
D-Link said the security breach occurred due to an employee falling victim to a phishing attack, granting the attacker access to the company's network.
