The recent breach at Vercel, a prominent platform for web app development, has resulted in the theft of sensitive customer data. The hacking group ShinyHunters, known for targeting various organizations, has reportedly begun to sell this stolen information online. The compromised data includes employee names, email addresses, and timestamps of user activities.
In a statement on X, Vercel acknowledged the incident, describing it as a “security incident” that affected a “limited subset” of its clients. The company identified a third-party AI tool as the source of the breach, although specific details regarding the involved third party were not disclosed.
