Aussizz offers visa and citizenship applications for Australia, as well as New Zealand, the US, the UK, and Canada, meaning the data it contains could be highly sensitive and used for further attacks and fraudulent activity.
The hackers listed Aussizz on its dark web leak site late last week, claiming to have stolen 278.91 gigabytes of data.
In a media statement release by Aussizz Group “To support our comprehensive response, Aussizz launched an investigation to understand what has happened, engaged external cyber security experts, and is working with relevant government agencies. We are aware that cyber criminals claim to have stolen and published data relating to Aussizz. We are working to verify and understand what data has been impacted as part of our comprehensive response to this incident.”
