Sex toys maker Tenga says hacker stole customer information

3 months ago

Tenga notified customers of a data breach involving unauthorized access to an employee's email account.
Hacker potentially accessed customer names, email addresses, and historical email correspondence, including order details and customer service inquiries.
Spam emails were sent to the hacked employee's contacts, including customers.
Tenga did not disclose the total number of affected customers but has shipped over 162 million products worldwide.
The breach may have exposed intimate customer information due to the nature of Tenga's products.
Tenga recommended customers change passwords and be vigilant of suspicious emails, though passwords were not confirmed as compromised.
Post-breach measures included resetting the hacked employee's credentials and enabling multi-factor authentication.
It is unclear if multi-factor authentication was in place prior to the breach.
Tenga, founded in 2005 and headquartered in Tokyo, sells sex toys primarily for men.
The breach's impact on non-U.S. customers is unclear as the notification came from Tenga Store USA.
Tenga joins other sex toy makers and adult websites that have experienced data breaches in recent years.
