Norwegian data authority notified after Unacast hack
Unacast notified Norwegian authorities of a data breach involving its subsidiary Gravy Analytics.
Unacast has informed Norwegian authorities of a data breach involving its subsidiary Gravy Analytics. The announcement was revealed in a notice published by Norwegian broadcaster NRK.
The breach involved a compromised web server using a misappropriated key, with some stolen files potentially containing personal data. Unacast’s legal representatives, BakerHostetler, confirmed the breach was discovered on 4 January, though the exact timing remains under investigation.
Repeated attempts to reach Unacast and its legal team for comment have gone unanswered. Norway’s data protection authority also could not be reached for further statements after business hours on Friday.
Gravy Analytics had been at the centre of online speculation last week, with experts confirming the authenticity of leaked data. Investigations into the full extent of the breach are ongoing.
