Cashback company ShopBack and budget hospitality firm RedDoorz are investigating breaches of their IT systems that might have compromised their customers’ personal data.
In an email to its users on Friday evening, ShopBack said it became aware a few days ago of an incident involving unauthorised access to its systems.
A spokesperson told The Business Times that the company is confirming exactly what data has been compromised, and will give an update when it has further information.
In that customer email, ShopBack said the unauthorised access was removed as soon as it became aware of the issue. Cybersecurity specialists have already been engaged to assess the extent of the incident and enhance its security measures.
ShopBack said that passwords are encrypted and credit card information is safe, but it advised users to change their passwords as an added precautionary measure.
Singapore’s Personal Data Protection Commission has been notified of the incident and investigations are ongoing, The Straits Times reported on Saturday.
Earlier this week, RedDoorz became aware of a breach of one of its IT databases.
