Singapore Red Cross

The Singapore Red Cross said that its website had been hacked and the personal data of more than 4,000 potential blood donors compromised in the latest cyber attack on the city-state.

The exposed information includes names, blood types, and contact numbers of 4,297 potential blood donors were compromised after an unauthorized access to a section of its website

SRC reported the breach to the authorities on the same day and police had launched an investigation.

Preliminary findings showed that a “weak administrator password” may have made the site vulnerable.
