Nullbulge, on their blog, revealed more details about the data they breached. They claimed that the massive data contains “unreleased projects, raw images and codes, some logins, links to internal API and more”. This has raised a lot of questions about the company as a whole.

Walt Disney, as of now, has made no comments. However, if this is true then it seems Disney should get their cyber security team upgraded. This is not the first time the company has been hacked. Events like this surely make a great dent in the company and surely there will be some repercussions.
