SIMBA data breach exposes 23,549 customer records

The company said no credit card or bank account information is at risk.

SIMBA said 23,549 registered customers had their personal data exposed in a data breach it discovered on 24 September, the company announced on 28 September.

The compromised data includes names, identity card numbers, dates of birth, mobile numbers and email addresses.

SIMBA said no credit card or bank account information is at risk, and investigations so far show no indication that any of the data has been maliciously misused.

The company said it has resolved the incident and is reviewing its security measures to protect core infrastructure and systems.

It is working with the relevant authorities and will notify affected customers by email, a process it expects to complete within the next week.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
