Crypto.com is under fire for allegedly concealing a data breach that occurred in early 2023, where a teenager and an accomplice hacked an employee's account, exposing some users' personal data. The exchange reportedly kept the incident secret, leading to criticism over its transparency. A spokesperson confirmed that only a few individuals were affected and no funds were compromised. The breach came to light after the hacker received a ten-year prison sentence. This incident underscores the increasing sophistication of cyberattacks on exchanges, often targeting employees as entry points, as seen in a recent Coinbase attack.
