Odido Hack Data Leaked

/in /tarafından

A hacking group has begun releasing customer information following a major cyberattack on Dutch telecom provider Odido.

The breach reportedly involved personal data linked to millions of users, including contact details and identification-related information. Authorities and cybersecurity specialists are currently investigating the incident.

Odido stated that it will not enter into negotiations with the attackers, aligning with guidance from law enforcement agencies that advise against ransom payments.

Officials noted that compliance with such demands does not guarantee the deletion of compromised data and may encourage further criminal activity.

The situation highlights ongoing challenges faced by telecommunications providers in safeguarding sensitive information amid rising cyber threats.

Greek Court Rules in Spy Case

A Greek court has found four individuals guilty of breaching personal data in connection with a surveillance controversy that emerged earlier this decade.

The case relates to allegations involving unauthorized monitoring through mobile software during 2020–2021. The ruling includes prison sentences, though the time to be served remains subject to appeal.

The decision follows years of legal scrutiny into claims that journalists and political figures were targeted through digital surveillance tools. The matter has drawn significant attention within Greece and beyond, raising concerns about privacy and oversight.

Authorities have also referred aspects of the case for further investigation into potential additional offences.

The development represents a key milestone in ongoing legal proceedings related to the broader wiretapping scandal.

Tech Giants Launch Digital Trust Alliance

/in /tarafından

A coalition of 15 major technology companies, led by Microsoft and Ericsson, has formed the Trusted Tech Alliance to promote safer and more reliable use of digital technologies worldwide.

The initiative introduces five guiding principles focused on ethical conduct, secure development practices, global security standards, strong governance, and support for an open digital ecosystem. The alliance brings together firms operating across cloud services, artificial intelligence, connectivity, semiconductors, and enterprise software.

Members include Amazon Web Services, Google, SAP, Nokia, NTT, Cohere and Reliance Jio Platforms, among others.

The move comes as governments across Europe and Asia place growing emphasis on digital sovereignty, seeking to reduce reliance on foreign technology providers. Rising geopolitical tensions and evolving data regulations have prompted debates about where data should be stored and how digital infrastructure should be governed.

Executives behind the initiative stress that no single nation can achieve full technological independence. Instead, the alliance aims to establish shared standards that reinforce trust in global digital systems while maintaining openness and interoperability.

Participating companies will commit to the alliance’s principles through internal verification and independent assessments.
