Unity Technologies

Unity Technologies, a video game software development firm, suffered a data breach on its **SpeedTree website** due to malicious code injected into the checkout page. The unauthorized code, active from **March 13, 2025, to August 26, 2025**, skimmed sensitive customer payment data during purchases. Compromised information included **names, addresses, emails, credit card numbers, and access codes** of **428 affected individuals**. The breach was discovered on **August 26, 2025**, prompting Unity to disable the website, remove the malicious code, and launch an investigation. The company notified impacted customers, authorities, and offered **12 months of free credit monitoring and identity protection** via Equifax. The incident was attributed to a **web skimming attack**, where threat actors intercepted payment details entered by users during transactions.
