The European Commission confirmed a data breach after its Europa.eu platform and at least one AWS account were compromised, with the ShinyHunters extortion group claiming to have stolen and posted large archives of Commission data (reported between ~90 GB publicly released and up to 350 GB claimed). The Commission says its websites were not disrupted, internal systems were not affected, and it is investigating, containing the incident, and notifying potentially impacted Union entities.
