50,000 Names and Driver’s Licenses Disclosed in Uber Hack

According to Reuters, the ride company, Uber, was breached and around 50,000 names and driver’s licenses of current and former employees was disclosed.

The breach happened in May of 2014 but wasn’t discovered until September 2014.

Uber also filed a lawsuit in a federal court in San Francisco on Friday against the unnamed individual who accessed the company’s files. Such litigation can be used to help uncover who committed the breach.

Thus, someone did it, they know who it was, but there aren’t details made public yet.
