Amazon confirms employee data breach, but says it’s limited to contact info


The MOVEit breach strikes again.

Amazon says a data breach exposed the email addresses, phone numbers, and building locations linked to its employees, as reported earlier by 404 Media. Hudson Rock says the leaked info dates back to May 2023, and it’s related to the major security vulnerability in the MOVEit file transfer system that came to light last year, adding Amazon to a list of affected organizations that already included the BBC, British Airways, Sony, the US Department of Energy, and many others. Montgomery told The Verge that the breach didn’t involve employee social security numbers, government identity documents, or financial data.
