Supercell Confirms Cyberattack Targeting Internal Meeting Platform

Finnish game developer Supercell disclosed a cyberattack on October 21, revealing that an unauthorized party accessed a platform used for hosting internal meetings and presentations. The breach, part of a series of attacks last week, exposed videos featuring current and former employees, guests, and partners from recorded events, along with names, images, voices, and user email addresses.

Supercell responded by blocking further access, taking the service offline, and launching an investigation. The company has filed a police report, notified authorities under the EU Cyber Resilience Act, and alerted the Data Protection Ombudsman. While the investigation remains ongoing, Supercell confirmed that no player data was compromised.

The stolen material could be exploited for phishing, impersonation, or other scams, prompting the company to warn individuals to remain cautious of suspicious messages. Those who participated in Supercell-hosted events are considered "very likely" affected and can contact [email protected] for further details.
