   FULL STORY   
   ======================================================================   
    - Telco giant NTT confirms losing sensitive customer data in cyberattack   
    - The data belonged to almost 18,000 NTT corporate clients   
    - The identity of the attackers has not yet been disclosed   
      
   Japanese telecommunications giant NTT Communications has confirmed suffering    
   a cyberattack which saw it lose data on roughly 18,000 client organizations.    
      
   In a press release published on the companys website, the company said it   
   first discovered the breach on February 5, and established a day later that   
   some sensitive data had been exfiltrated.    
      
   Following an internal investigation, we determined there was a possibility   
   that some data stored within our internal Order Information Distribution   
   System, which manages and distributes information related to service orders   
   and changes for corporate customers, had been leaked, the announcement reads.   
   No information related to services provided to individual customers was   
   leaked.   
      
   Key data missing    
      
   Further in the announcement, the company said 17,891 customers had their data   
   leaked, with affected services includiong those provided to certain corporate   
   customers. The data stolen includes contract numbers, the customer name shown   
   on the contract, customer contact names, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses,   
   postal addresses, and information related to the use of services.    
      
   Corporate cellphone and smartphone subscriptions with NTT DOCOMO were not   
   affected, and so far, there is no evidence the data is being abused in the   
   wild, the firm said.    
      
   Some key information is still missing, though - as we dont know exactly how   
   many people are affected by the breach, and who the threat actors actually   
   are.    
      
   NTT has also not discussed if this was a simple smash-and-grab, or if it was    
   a ransomware attack. Finally, we dont know how the criminals compromised NTTs   
   infrastructure, if they used compromised credentials, or a software   
   vulnerability.    
      
   To tackle the threat and make sure it doesnt repeat, NTT said it is enhancing   
   all appropriate security measures and monitoring systems, without elaborating   
   further.    
      
   NTT Communications offers services such as cloud, network, and security   
   solutions, and claims to have more than 10,000 enterprise clients around the   
   world.
