This article discusses a recent security incident involving Transak, a fiat on/off-ramp provider, where an unauthorized actor accessed a third-party KYC vendor's dashboard using compromised employee credentials. Up to 1.14% of Transak's user base (approximately 92,554 users) were affected, with personal identity information such as names, dates of birth, ID documents, and selfie photos accessed. No financial data or internal systems were compromised. Transak responded by enhancing security measures, including enforcing hardware-based multi-factor authentication, improving monitoring systems, upgrading endpoint security, restricting access permissions, conducting frequent vendor security audits, and providing additional employee security training.
