- pc86 3y agoThat makes it theft but doesn't make it hacking.
- kube-system 3y agoLegally speaking, in many/most places, taking any data you're not supposed to take from a computer system is 'hacking'. This is a story about a hacking group that took data they're not supposed to have. I don't see many scenarios in which it wouldn't qualify.
- PeterStuer 3y agoI've integrated worldcheck for AML in financial service companies. Just like any other consultant doing this type of work, I could have walked out the door with a full copy of the DB on my laptop or a USB stick any time I wanted. Doing that might have made me a 'pirate' or a thief, but rest assured no 'hacking' would have been involved.
- kube-system 3y agoThe data was stolen by a hacking group, not employees
- justinclift 3y agoThat's what's claimed. Could be an insider job instead though.
