Major Australian healthcare company alleges data breach by Russian hackers

Australian Federal Police commissioner Reece Kershaw blamed the attack on Russia-based "cyber criminals".

Russian hackers carried out a cyberattack on a major Australian healthcare company that breached the data of 9.7 million people, including the country's prime minister, police said Friday.
The hackers started leaking the data this week after Medibank, the country's largest health insurer, refused to pay a $9.7 million (Aus$15 million) ransom.
Australian Federal Police commissioner Reece Kershaw blamed the attack on Russia-based "cyber criminals".
"We believe those responsible for the breach are in Russia," he told reporters.
"Our intelligence points to a group of loosely affiliated cyber criminals who are likely responsible for past significant breaches across the world."
The hackers have been drip-feeding the stolen data to a dark web forum.
The first leaks appeared to have been selected to cause maximum harm: targeting those who received treatment related to drug abuse, sexually transmitted infections, or pregnancy terminations.

Kershaw said the hackers also appeared to be supported by people living outside Russia.
"These cyber criminals are operating like a business with affiliates and associates who are supporting the business.
"We also believe that some affiliates may be in other countries."
He added that Australian police would be working with Interpol and seeking the cooperation of their counterparts in Russia.
"We'll be holding talks with Russian law enforcement about these individuals," he said.
"Russia benefits from the intelligence sharing and data shared through Interpol and with that comes responsibilities and accountability."

Irish regulators are slapping Instagram with a big fine after an investigation found the social media platform mishandled teenagers’ personal data. 

Irish regulators fine Instagram 405 million euros for data breach 

The Irish watchdog&rsquo;s investigation centered on how Instagram exposed the personal details of users ages 13 to 17, including email addresses and phone numbers.

Irish regulators are slapping Instagram with a big fine after an investigation found the social media platform mishandled teenagers&rsquo; personal data.&nbsp;
Ireland&rsquo;s Data Protection Commission said by email on September 5, 2022, that it made a final decision last week to fine the company 405 million euros ($402 million), though the full details won&rsquo;t be released until next week.&nbsp;
The penalty is the second-biggest issued under the European Union&rsquo;s stringent privacy rules after Luxembourg&rsquo;s regulators fined Amazon 746 million euros last year.&nbsp;
Instagram parent company Meta, which also owns Facebook, can appeal the decision but didn&rsquo;t respond to a request for comment.&nbsp;
The Irish watchdog&rsquo;s investigation centered on how Instagram exposed the personal details of users aged 13 to 17, including email addresses and phone numbers. The minimum age for Instagram users is 13.&nbsp;
Under the EU&rsquo;s data privacy rules, the Irish watchdog is the lead regulator for many U.S. tech companies with European headquarters in Dublin.&nbsp;
The watchdog has a raft of other inquiries into Meta-owned companies. Last year, it fined WhatsApp 225 million euros for breaching rules on transparency about sharing people&rsquo;s data with other Meta companies.&nbsp;
