Charter Communications Under Data Breach from ShinyHunters 

U.S. telecom giant Charter Communications confirmed a data breach after extortion group ShinyHunters threatened to leak stolen data.

While ShinyHunters alleges the data includes names, emails, and phone numbers, Charter maintains that no sensitive personal information or customer proprietary network information (CPNI) was stolen.
