Qantas Airlines Breached, Impacting 6M Customers

Qantas experienced a breach of a third-party contact-center platform that exposed PII (names, emails, phone numbers, birth dates, frequent flyer numbers) for roughly six million customers; no passport or financial card data was reported stolen. The airline contained the incident, opened a customer support line, and is investigating with federal authorities while CyberCX assisted in response; reporting notes suspected involvement of the Scattered Spider APT and warns of follow-on phishing and scam calls.
