Client PayU claims it was hit by infostealer malware.
India-based online ID verification and customer onboarding service provider Signzy has confirmed it suffered a cyber-attack last week.
Details are limited, but one client said Signzy had been compromised with "information stealer malware.”
“We have received written confirmation from the vendor that PayU and its customers' data have not been compromised and remain secure with the best security standards in place," said PayU spokesperson Dimple Mehta.
According to TechCrunch, the company has enlisted a ‘professional agency’ to investigate the intrusion, and the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team - CERT-In - has confirmed ongoing efforts to decide on necessary actions following the incident.
