Deloitte Allegedly Suffers Major Data Breach – Source Code and GitHub Credentials Reportedly Leaked

Global consulting giant Deloitte has allegedly suffered a significant data breach, with internal Github credentials and source code reportedly leaked on an online forum. The multinational professional services network, headquartered in London, is one of the “Big Four” accounting firms, providing a wide array of services including audit, consulting, tax, and advisory services to many of the world’s largest corporations. The scale and importance of its clientele make any potential compromise of its data a serious concern.

The alleged breach appears to have originated from a post on a dark web forum, where an individual claims to have compromised Deloitte’s systems. The post included snippets of what appears to be configuration files and repository information. The full extent and validity of the breach are yet to be officially confirmed by Deloitte.

The leaked data allegedly includes:

• Github Credentials
• Source Code

This incident highlights the persistent threat of cyberattacks against even the most prominent global organizations and underscores the critical importance of robust cybersecurity measures to protect sensitive corporate and client information. Further investigation will be required to determine the full scope of the alleged breach and its potential impact.
