Check Point plays down impact of alleged breach
Briefly

Check Point has addressed concerns after a hacker named Corelinjection alleged the theft of sensitive company data, claiming it was obtained over time. The company reassures clients that the information, purportedly for sale for 5 bitcoin, was likely collected through malware on individual user devices rather than any breach of its systems. They labeled the data as 'irrelevant' and pointed out discrepancies in the hacker's claims, such as a forged email. Previous incidents of fraud related to hacking claims were also referenced as a context.
Check Point firmly states that the alleged hacker's information is collected through infostealer malware, not a breach of internal systems.
The hacker, Corelinjection, is offering stolen information but Check Point insists the claims are misleading and the data irrelevant.
Check Point highlighted that some of the evidence provided by the hacker, including a forged email, clearly indicates that no breach has occurred.
In previous incidents, similar claims have also been debunked, demonstrating that not all publicly reported hacks are genuine.
