World Health Organization

The login credentials of some staff members of the World Health Organization were accessed by hackers in March 2020.

The compromised passwords contained access to a lot of sensitive information about the pandemic.

The attack was the result of a successful phishing attempt that forced the organization to switch the infrastructure as a future precautionary step.
