Hackers breach German data exchange service FTAPI
Original: Cyberangriff auf Datenaustauschdienst FTAPI Die Cybergang The Gentlemen ist bei der Datenaustauschplattform FTAPI eingeb
Munich-based secure data exchange provider FTAPI has confirmed a cyberattack carried out by the hacking group The Gentlemen, which managed to break into the platform. FTAPI confirmed the intrusion to the German tech outlet heise online. The service is widely used by companies and public institutions in Germany to transfer sensitive files, raising concerns about what data may have been exposed.
Why now: FTAPI is used by many German organisations for sensitive file transfers, so a confirmed breach by a known cyber gang raises immediate security concerns.
