Fedex plays down hack security risk
FedEx has revealed that some sensitive customer information was freely available after a security breach. And it now confirms it has secured some of the customer identification records that were visible earlier this month on an unsecured server and so far has found no evidence that private data was “misappropriated.”
The hacked server reportedly stored more than 119,000 scanned documents from USA and international customers including passports, driving licenses, and security identification documents. There’s no way of determining whether you might have been one of the businesses or users which were impacted. The company related to the breach is called Bongo International. Apparently the security risk was revealed on February 5th and shut down at some point last week.
