“We have recently discovered that there has been a security breach involving certain internal company data. Right after that, we strengthened our security system. According to our initial analysis, the breach involves some source code related to the operation of the device Galaxy, however, does not include personal data of our customers or employees. We do not currently anticipate that the breach will have any impact on our business or customers. We have implemented certain measures to prevent further such incidents and will continue to provide services to our customers without interruption.” said a Samsung representative.

Samsung customers can rest assured that their personal data has not been obtained by hackers. Although the company said it has strengthened its security system, we recommend that you change your passwords and activate two-step verification for Samsung services. Anyway, the incident is embarrassing for Samsung. A source code leak could give its competitors a "peek into its kitchen" and it could take some time for the company to fully resolve the situation. However, she is far from alone in this - recently, other technology giants such as Nvidia, Amazon (or its Twitch live streaming platform) or Panasonic have become targets of cyber attacks.
