Recently, the gamepad company, SCUF, has
experienced a security breach that has exposed
the online information of millions of people
spread across the internet. The database exposed
in the data breach includes the detailed
information of people who have purchased the
gamepad manufactured by the company, including
their names, payment made, and contact. Founded
in the year 2010 with the name of SCUF Gaming
International, the company has earned a name for
itself in manufacturing high-end gaming
controllers for several gaming consoles including
PS4, Xbox and PCs. The company has been owned
by a computer hardware company based in America,
Corsair components, which has specialization in
manufacturing computer accessories such as
headsets, flash drives, wireless devices, and
keyboards. Source https//emilyjohnso731.wordpr

The incident of the data breach was identified by
one of the security researchers of Comparitech,
Bob Diachenko. He found and reported that a
database exposing the detailed information of the
customers is easily accessible on the servers of
SCUF Gaming International without any password or
authentication.

Meanwhile, the company took quick steps to
console the people regarding the data breach. It
said in a notification posted on its site that it
is limited to only one specific system. The
company said that the customers need not worry
about the data breach as access to the online
data is closed. Amidst all, it seems that the
database includes information related to both
employees and the customers spanning the last
three years. It consists of the full names with
the email address of the people along with their
billing and shipping address. Also, the database
has information about the phone numbers of the
customers with an order history of almost
1,228,649

The Risk Involved in this Data Breach
The company has assured its customers that there
is no risk or threat to them even if the credit
card numbers or other information has been
exposed. The company has told its customers that
exposing their user ids or payment details would
not create any threat to the people. But, it
cant be denied that such information can be
utilized in the wrong way by the cybercriminals.
Cybercriminals can use such details to make you
the victim. The cyber-thieves contact you through
your email ids, or phone numbers can get other
financial or personal information from you.
Further, the data obtained from you could be used
by the cyber thieves for committing online thefts.
