French rugby club Stade Français restores systems after cyberattack, probes data leak
French rugby club Stade Français suffered a cyberattack and is investigating a potential data leak. The club says it restored its IT systems from clean backups and that its ticketing platform and online store were unaffected.
Why this matters: Sports clubs collect a lot of personal data: names, payment details, addresses, and purchase histories from fans who just wanted to buy tickets. The systems are back up, which is good. The open question is what data was taken before they got there. 'We restored from backups' and 'no data was leaked' are two different statements. Only one of them has been made here.
