KRA major data breach affected nearly 40 million user accounts of South Korea's streaming platform Tving, according to a government-civilian investigation. The breach, traced back to a hacking incident reported in June, involved the compromise of 39.54 million accounts and 361 technical assets, including source code. The breach occurred after an unidentified hacker stole a developer's access key to infiltrate Tving's systems. While Tving has since improved its security, investigators warn of potential secondary risks, such as cybercrime using the leaked data. Tving delayed reporting the breach to authorities, possibly leading to fines.
