Samsung and Nvidia were hacked by notorious hacking group Lapsus$. Samsung Electronics data was mined by hackers and compiled into a 190 GB dump. Samsung’s secret code from partners such as Qualcomm was also released, along with many security measures. Although Samsung has remained silent since the breach, it has issued a statement that reads:

We were recently made aware that there was a security breach relating to certain internal company data. Immediately after discovering the incident, we strengthened our security system. According to our initial analysis, the breach involves some source codes relating to the operation of Galaxy devices but does not include the personal information of our consumers or employees. Currently, we do not anticipate any impact to our business or customers. We have implemented measures to prevent further such incidents and will continue to serve our customers without disruption.

No personal information was stolen from Samsung customers by the hackers. According to the company, the likelihood of another breach is extremely low, at least in the near future. Despite this, we recommend that you change the passwords for your Samsung services and enable 2FA (two-factor authentication) just to be safe.

It’s hard to say how much more data the hacker group has stored behind closed doors, even though 190 GB of it was released publicly. Moreover, the breach revealed valuable details about Samsung’s device security, making it easier for malicious elements to defeat Samsung phone security.
Samsung’s source code could give competitors a look at its secret sauce. It may take Samsung quite some time to fix the problem as a result of the leak of source code. Due to this and the recent GOS controversy. Samsung’s shareholders are outraged and are now calling for accountability from upper management.
