Twitch has confirmed a data breach

Posted date 08/10/2021

Amazon-owned streaming platform Twitch has confirmed a security breach that has resulted in the exfiltration of at least 125GB of data.

The torrent file, which has been posted anonymously on a forum by cybercriminals, allegedly contains data for the entirety of Twitch, including source code for multiple applications, and sensitive user and corporate information.

Twitch is currently working to resolve the incident and, as a precaution, has reset all stream keys.
