"Cushman & Wakefield recently became aware of a limited data security incident due to vishing. We have activated our response protocols, including taking steps to contain the unauthorized activity and engaging third-party expert advisors to support a comprehensive response."
"ShinyHunters claimed they attacked the company on May 1, while Qilin listed C&W on its data leak site on May 4. ShinyHunters claimed it stole over 500,000 Salesforce records containing PII and other internal corporate data."
"ShinyHunters set a May 6 deadline for C&W to make contact to prevent the data from being leaked, but the cybercriminals claimed this had yet to happen."
Cushman & Wakefield experienced a data breach linked to vishing, where an employee was socially engineered. The company activated response protocols and engaged third-party experts. ShinyHunters claimed responsibility for stealing over 500,000 Salesforce records, while Qilin listed the company on its data leak site. The attacks appear to be separate but coincidentally timed, with ShinyHunters setting a deadline for contact to prevent data leakage. The company continues to operate normally while investigating the incident.
