Since early 2021, we have seen several companies ranging from Dominos, BigBasket to Clubhouse and Twitch suffer major data breaches and ransomware attacks. The biggest among them was the Facebook data leak that put the personal data of over 533 million users at risk. Now, as per recent reports, Acer has suffered a massive data breach where a group of hackers stole around 60GB worth of data from the company’s Indian servers.
The Taiwanese giant also confirmed that the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team informed it about the attack, following which the company informed the affected users. If you have ever visited the Acer service center in India, we suggest you be very cautious of any malicious activity against your name.
