Cybernews Uncovers KYC Data Exposure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cybernews, a cybersecurity news outlet, conducted an investigation that revealed that Bit24.cash had a misconfiguration in its cloud storage system. This error resulted in unauthorized access to the platform\u2019s Know Your Customer (KYC)<\/a> data, a critical component in regulatory compliance and user verification processes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The data exposed includes passports, IDs, credit cards, and written consent to regulations. This breach is particularly alarming, given the sensitive nature of the information involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cybernews stated\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> that the data exposure could lead to identity theft, fraud, phishing, and other cyberattacks on the affected users. The news outlet also said that the breach could have serious implications for the platform\u2019s reputation and regulatory status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bit24.cash Refutes Data Breach Claims<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In response to these allegations, Bit24.cash spokesperson Hossein Amini refuted the claims, stating that the report was inaccurate and misleading. Amini emphasized no evidence of a data breach or unauthorized access to user information. He further asserted that the company\u2019s MinIO instance and cloud storage containers were secure, contradicting the findings of the Cybernews investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amini also accused Cybernews of having ulterior motives and trying to damage the platform\u2019s reputation. He said the news outlet was spreading false information and creating panic among the users. He urged the users to trust the platform and not to fall for the rumors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
