EasyPark discloses data breach that may impact millions of users
2023-12-28 19:38

Parking app developer EasyPark has published a notice on its website warning of a data breach it discovered on December 10, 2023, which impacts an unknown number of its millions of users.

As reported by BleepingComputer, ParkMobile disclosed a massive data breach in 2021 that exposed the stolen data for 21 million customers.

Although a firm spokesperson has declined to provide details about this new breach and how many customers were impacted, they told BleepingComputer that a portion of European users had been affected, indicating that the incident concerns mainly EasyPark app users.

The above could help cybercriminals launch effective phishing attacks against the exposed EasyPark users, which the company warns explicitly about in the data breach notice.

Users who are impacted by this incident will receive personalized notices from EasyPark via in-app messages, push notifications, email, and SMS. "If you want to know if you are affected, please open the app," suggests the FAQ on the data breach notice.
