The company is currently working with forensic investigators to understand the scope of the breach.
Live Nation Entertainment, Ticketmaster's parent company, revealed on Friday that they are investigating a data breach discovered on May 20th. This incident adds to the recent rise of cyberattacks targeting major corporations.
According to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Live Nation detected "unauthorized activity" within a third-party cloud storage system primarily containing Ticketmaster user data. The company is currently working with forensic investigators to understand the scope of the breach.
Last week a little-known cybercrime group named ShinyHunters said it had stolen user data of over 500 million Ticketmaster customers, according to various media reports.
