Following the internet exposure of over a terabyte of corporate data by a hacker group, Walt Disney intends to discontinue using Slack as its corporate workplace collaboration platform, according to a report in the Status media weekly.
The majority of the media and entertainment company’s divisions would discontinue utilizing the program later this year, according to Disney CFO Hugh Johnston, the report stated.
The report states that many teams have already begun to switch to more efficient enterprise-wide collaboration technologies.
Requests for comments were not immediately answered by Disney or Salesforce’s Slack. According to a July story, hacking collective NullBulge has leaked information from thousands of Slack conversations within the massive entertainment company, including computer code and information about upcoming projects. As was revealed earlier this month, the data includes over 44 million messages from Disney’s Slack corporate communications platform.
In August, the business announced that it was looking into the unapproved disclosure of more than one terabyte of data from one of its communication systems. According to SentinelOne’s threat intelligence and malware analysis team, NullBulge disrupts software supply chains by taking advantage of vulnerabilities in collaborative coding sites like Hugging Face and GitHub and tricking users into downloading harmful files.
