On Christmas Day, Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming's computer systems were targeted by hackers, who appear to have taken confidential information.
Following the phone call, someone using the name Dr. Clement Goyette sent CBC a link to an "evidence pack" of files, which contained more than 500 megabytes of what appear to be internal SLGA documents.A man who identified himself as the one who hacked SLGA files sent CBC a package of what appear to be internal SLGA documents as proof of his claim."We tried to reach the company to provide them this information and to start negotiations.
CBC called Minhas to alert him that his data appeared to have been taken in the SLGA hack. He said SLGA never informed him about it.He said it made him "very concerned."The hack happened more than three months ago. The news release said the Crown corporation had launched an investigation and that "SLGA does not have any evidence that the security of any customer, employee or other personal data has been misused."
"SLGA believes that personal information of SLGA's regulatory clients may have been accessed or taken by an unauthorized third party,"The Crown corporation said the personal information of "gaming registrants, liquor permit applicants and cannabis permit applicants" had been taken.
Stop thinking the Government is your friend and looking out for you.
