Entertainment major Live Nation has confirmed that its ticketing subsidiary Ticketmaster was compromised by hackers, who allegedly offered data of 560 million users on the dark web for sale.

The hackers exposed data, allegedly containing personal information, credit card details and other information about Ticketmaster customers, selling it for $500,000 on the Dark Web, according to reports.

Now, in a regulatory filing in the US, Live Nation has acknowledged the data breach.

“On May 20, 2024, Live Nation Entertainment identified unauthorized activity within a third-party cloud database environment containing company data (primarily from its Ticketmaster subsidiary) and launched an investigation with industry-leading forensic investigators to understand what happened,” the company said in the filing.

On May 27, a criminal threat actor offered what it alleged to be “company user data for sale via the dark web”.

“We are working to mitigate risk to our users and the Company, and have notified and are cooperating with law enforcement. As appropriate, we are also notifying regulatory authorities and users with respect to unauthorized access to personal information,” said Live Nation.

It said that the data breach, has not had any “material impact on our overall business operations or on our financial condition or results of operations”.

“We continue to evaluate the risks and our remediation efforts are ongoing,” it added.

Live Nation, however, didn’t provide specific details about the breach.

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
