Biznet Customer Data Allegedly Leaked Again, Expert Says Valid
Morrissey Technology – Cyber criminals who are suspected of again leaking data from internet service provider (ISP) Biznet are at it again by leaking the data of 150 thousand Biznet Gio users. This latest step by cyber criminals was revealed by Teguh Aprianto, founder of Ethical Hacker Indonesia. Teguh said that the perpetrator, who had previously leaked 380 thousand Biznet Networks user data, had now leaked more than 150 thousand Biznet Gio Cloud user data.
“After leaking more than 380 thousand Biznet Networks user data, according to his promise, yesterday the perpetrator leaked 154,091 @BiznetGioCloud user data,” Teguh wrote on X, Monday (25/3).
Teguh said the data that was leaked included full name, email, balance, hashed password, address, NPWP, cellphone number, and a number of other data. Apart from leaking data, the perpetrator also gave a second warning to Biznet management.
“If before April 7 2024 Biznet still hasn’t removed the FUP Situs Toto policy, the perpetrators will start to leak VM details from Biznet Gio, including IP addresses, users, passwords, key pairs, etc.,” wrote Teguh.
Furthermore, Teguh said that testing 2,000 randomly selected samples from all the leaked data showed that the leaked user data was valid and registered with Biznet Gio.
“From 154,091 leaked data, 2,000 samples were randomly selected for validation. As a result, 99.65 percent of the leaked user data was valid and registered with Biznet Gio,” he explained.
Regarding the suspicion that the perpetrator was a former employee, Teguh considered this to be just bait or decoy to divert him from the real suspect. Biznet Gio is a cloud service provider that supports various integrated cloud solutions.
“Biznet Gio provides the most complete cloud infrastructure solution in Indonesia, reliable, affordable for all industries and has the highest security commitment and 24-hour technical support to customers,” wrote Biznet Gio on its website. However, there has been no response until this news was written. Likewise, the Ministry of Communication and Information and the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN) have not provided official information.
Previously, hackers also leaked data allegedly managed by Biznet in early March. It was revealed that more than 380 thousand Biznet user data, ranging from names, NIKs, to cellphone numbers, was leaked on the dark web.
He said the data leaker claimed to be a Biznet employee who did not agree with Biznet’s FUP (Fair Usage Policy) FOR4D policy. The threat actor threatened to leak Biznet data again, namely Biznet Gio, if management did not respond by March 25.
