AU10TIX, an Israeli-based identity verification firm used by TikTok, Uber, and X, exposed administrative credentials online for over a year, allowing hackers access to sensitive user data. This data included names, dates of birth, nationalities, ID numbers, document images, and driver's licenses. AU10TIX verifies user identities through face photos and driver's licenses. The breach highlights the risks associated with third-party vendors handling identifiable data, especially as the internet increasingly requires identity verification. The exposed credentials have raised concerns about the security practices of companies relying on such services.
