In early 2019 the Australian ticketing and live entertainment giant TEG suffered a data security incident involving unauthorized access to customer information. The breach affected users of Ticketek which is a subsidiary of TEG. Investigations revealed that an external party gained access to a cloud based database containing personal details of millions of customers across Australia and New Zealand. The compromised data included names and contact information but the company stated that payment details and passwords were not part of the exposed dataset. The incident highlighted vulnerabilities in cloud storage configurations and prompted a significant security review by the company to prevent future unauthorized access attempts.
