We are in touch with law enforcement and will post additional updates here as they become available. &amp;mdash; Uber Comms (@Uber_Comms) September 16, 2022 A New York Times report said that as soon as Uber learned of Thursday&#8217;s breach, the company took a number of its internal computer systems offline while it tried to determine exactly what had happened. According to the NYT, workers at Uber offices received a message via the company&#8217;s internal messaging system with the ominous notice: “I announce I am a hacker and Uber has suffered a data breach.” The hacker then named a number of internal databases that they claimed to have compromised.

The message was reportedly sent from an Uber employee’s account that the hacker had managed to access. Two workers with knowledge of the incident told the NYT that they were ordered by management to stop using the messaging software, reportedly the popular platform Slack.

They also found that they were unable to gain access to other internal systems operated by Uber. Uber has yet to offer any details about the cybersecurity incident, but it’s expected to do so once it’s completed its initial investigation.

With the company holding the personal data of a huge number of riders and drivers, there will be concerns that the hacker has managed to steal much of this information. The incident comes six years after Uber suffered a serious data breach that saw hackers nab data linked to 57 million users, including 7 million drivers.

The ridesharing company was heavily criticized for how it handled the incident after it emerged that it had kept the hack secret for more than a year. Even more concerning, under its former CEO Travis Kalanick, Uber tried to cover up the incident by offering the hacker $100,000 to destroy the stolen data. Hackers also targeted Uber in September 2014, stealing information on 50,000 drivers and their cars.

The company didn’t tell anyone about the breach until five months later. This time, however, Uber appears keen to show that it has changed its ways, quickly tweeting about the incident soon after it learned about it. Still, that will be cold comfort for its riders and drivers if it emerges that their data has been stolen.
