Cyberattack could lead to $100m loss for Las Vegas casino

MGM Resorts International has announced that a cyberattack the casino suffered last month has inflicted a significant blow to its Q3 outcomes, approximating a remarkable $100 million impact. The breach was the outcome of a collaboration between AlphV and another hacking collective, Scattered Spider. The offenders succeeded in gaining entry to exclusive information of clients who availed MGM services prior to March 2019, encompassing contact particulars, gender, date of birth, and driver's license digits. Although MGM believes that a restricted quantity of social security digits and passport digits were also obtained, they declared that there is no sign of the appropriated information being exploited for identity theft or account fraud.
