UniCredit has revealed a data breach resulting in the leak of information belonging to three million customers.
The names, phone numbers, emails, and cities where clients were registered were all disclosed in a total of about three million entries.
People engaged in the breach have lost Personally Identifiable Information (PII), which may be used in social engineering tactics and possibly help with identity theft, but the likelihood of unauthorized transactions being brought on by the data leak is low.
The organization has started an internal inquiry into how the incident occurred and has notified the necessary authorities, including law enforcement. A postal notice or an online banking notification will be sent to affected consumers.
