Movistar, a subsidiary of Telefónica, is facing a massive data breach in Venezuela affecting 3.2 million users, according to the NGO VeSinFiltro. The leaked information, which was published on an online forum, includes names, identity numbers, locations, and phone numbers of Movistar customers in Venezuela. Experts have raised concerns about potential scams and identity theft risks stemming from the breach. This incident adds to the growing number of data violations recorded globally, with the French data protection authority CNIL reporting a record 5,629 personal data breaches in 2024. In response to similar cyberattacks, organizations such as Cerballiance laboratories have advised clients to change their passwords. Additionally, VeSinFiltro has highlighted ongoing censorship issues in Venezuela, noting a recent blocking of Telegram by the state telecommunications company CANTV.
