A security engineer says a hacker provided evidence of obtaining access to crucial systems at the ride-hailing service.
Uber has suffered a significant data breach. The rideshare company has taken several of its internal systems offline to assess the extent of the damage done. It's the first major attack since 2016.
Uber said Thursday that it reached out to law enforcement after a hacker apparently breached its network. A security engineer said the intruder provided evidence of obtaining access to crucial systems at the ride-hailing service.
It is unclear if the hacker also compromised Uber's database for its users' data. Uber's employees have encountered something suspicious on their Slack messaging app.
