Nippon Steel Solutions, a subsidiary of Japan’s Nippon Steel, reported a data breach caused by hackers exploiting a zero-day vulnerability in their network equipment.
The breach led to unauthorized access and potential leaks of personal data of customers, partners, and employees, but cloud services remain unaffected.
