Cyber Hackers Target Vodafone After Breaching Nvidia, Samsung - Vodafone Group (NASDAQ:VOD)

Vodafone Group PLC VOD is investigating Lapsus$' claims of a data breach, CNBC reports.
The group noted for breaching Samsung Electronics Co Ltd's SSNLF source codes of Galaxy-branded devices, threatened to leak Vodafone's source code.
In February, the group also accepted responsibility for NVIDIA Corp's NVDA data breach.
On March 7, the group initiated a poll on the Telegram app asking, "What should we leak next?" followed by three options.
The first option is ~200 GB worth of Vodafone source code. The poll ends on March 13.
The other two options are the source code and databases of Portuguese media corporation Impresa and the source code for Argentinian e-commerce companies MercadoLibre Inc MELI and MercadoPago.
Vodafone's Portuguese unit faced a cyberattack in February, disrupting its services.
Price Action: VOD shares are down 1.34% at $15.82 premarket on the last check Thursday.
