About This Breach
In late June 2024, Twilio, a U.S. cloud communications company, experienced a data breach that compromised 33 million phone numbers, specifically from users of its two-factor authentication app, Authy. The breach occurred through an unauthenticated endpoint, which has since been secured. While Twilio stated that no other sensitive data was compromised, they urged users to update their Authy apps to protect against future risks. This breach highlights the importance of regularly updating software to safeguard against evolving cyber threats.
