Qantas Airlines confirmed a cyberattack exposing data of up to 6 million customers, with personal records compromised.
The breach involved customer names, email addresses, phone numbers, birth dates, and frequent flyer numbers; however, no credit card details or passwords were compromised.
The attack is suspected to be linked to the 'Scattered Spider' ransomware group known for targeting aviation and retail sectors.
Qantas CEO apologized, notified authorities, and set up customer support for affected individuals; cybersecurity experts have been engaged for investigation.
