China’s SCAA Suffers Cyberattack

The South China Athletic Association (SCAA) grapples with the aftermath of a cyberattack, raising concerns about the security of member data. In response, the association swiftly implements measures to address the breach and protect the privacy of its members. The breach, which occurred on March 17, 2024, prompts the shutdown of affected computer equipment as a precautionary measure.

Furthermore, the SCAA reports the incident to law enforcement authorities and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) in Hong Kong. The PCPD estimates that approximately 70,000 individuals may be affected by the breach and initiates an investigation, urging the SCAA to promptly notify affected individuals. Amidst the breach fallout, the PCPD issues recommendations for affected persons to safeguard their personal data privacy, emphasizing vigilance against potential phishing attempts and scams.

In response to the cyberattack, the SCAA condemns cybercrime and pledges full cooperation with law enforcement agencies. While no evidence has emerged suggesting the compromise of personal data thus far, the association remains committed to strengthening security measures to prevent future breaches. SCAA reassures its members of ongoing updates and efforts to restore trust, acknowledging the severity of the situation and the importance of safeguarding member data.
