Toyota confirms breach after stolen data leaks on hacking forum

Toyota confirmed that customer and employee data was exposed after a threat actor named ZeroSevenGroup published a 240GB archive allegedly stolen from a U.S. branch of a third-party entity misrepresented as Toyota. The leaked files reportedly include contacts, finance, customers, employees, photos, databases, and network infrastructure details (including ADRecon-extracted credentials); Toyota asserts its own systems were not compromised but has not disclosed the third-party's identity or the breach timeline.
