Tricolor.ru

In mid 2021 the Russian satellite television provider Tricolor TV experienced a significant data breach affecting its customer base. A database containing approximately 3.8 million records was compromised with a subset of 300000 records being leaked publicly on various underground forums. The incident exposed sensitive personal information of subscribers which could be used for targeted phishing and social engineering attacks. The breach likely occurred due to unauthorized access to a backend server or a misconfiguration in the company infrastructure.
