It took hackers just 22 lines of code to steal British Airways’ customer data - Mr.Kurd - 09-12-2018 In The Name OF Allah Al-Salam Alekum Quote:Last week, British Airways acknowledged that its website had been hacked – leading to 380,000 customers‘ data being compromised. It seems like it wasn’t too difficult either: Cybersecurity firm RiskIQ has found out that it took hackers just 22 lines of code to get a hold of the data. RiskIQ speculated that a group called Magecart is behind this attack; it was responsible for the TicketMaster UK hack earlier this year, which affected the data of 400,000 customers. Magecart has traditionally stolen data by injecting a malicious script into payment forms.https://thenextweb.com/security/2018/09/12/hackers-used-22-line-code-stole-british-airways-data/?amp=1 Wa Salam Alekum |
