European Space Agency Confirms Breach of External Servers www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/secu…
The European Space Agency (ESA) has confirmed that attackers recently breached servers located outside its corporate network. The compromised systems contained what ESA described as unclassified information related to collaborative engineering activities.
The agency issued a statement following claims by a threat actor on the BreachForums forum, alleging unauthorized access to several ESA systems.
The threat actor also released screenshots purportedly demonstrating week-long access to ESA’s JIRA and Bitbucket servers.
“ESA is aware of a recent cybersecurity issue involving servers located outside the ESA corporate network. We have initiated a forensic security analysis—currently in progress—and implemented measures to secure any potentially affected devices,” the agency said on Tuesday.
