JP: Hackers steal customer data by accessing supermarket database

Posted on August 14, 2010 by Dissent

Hackers stole customer data from eight online supermarkets in Japan, including Uny Co. and Neo Beat Co., in July using a hacking technique called SQL injection to access their databases, sources familiar with the matter said Friday.

A source close to Neo Beat, which also operates the websites of these online supermarkets, said it believes that the approximately 30,000 unauthorized accesses to its database server were likely “perpetrated by a group of professional hackers.”

The accesses, which were conducted from Japan and China on July 24-26, resulted in the theft of data on a total of 12,191 customers of the Osaka-based company as well as its seven business partners including supermarket chains Izumiya Co., Maruetsu Inc. and Ryukyu Jusco Co.
