Avnet confirmed a data breach involving externally hosted cloud storage supporting an internal sales tool used in EMEA. The company said the stolen data is not easily readable without its proprietary sales tool, which was not impacted, but a threat actor claimed theft of 1.3TB of compressed data and published samples that reportedly include personally identifiable information. Avnet said the incident was limited to a single system and did not disrupt global operations.
