An employee, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said someone had compromised Uber's network. Employees have been instructed not to use the messaging service 'Slack' used internally, and are unable to access other internal systems.

Furthermore, shortly before Slack's system went offline, someone sent a message saying, 'I am a hacker and Uber has suffered a data breach.' The employee then went on to list internal databases that the person allegedly hacked, the employee said. It seems that the hacker also had access to other internal systems and posted obscene photos on the internal information page for employees.

An Uber spokesperson said, ``Hackers hacked employees' Slack accounts and used them to send messages,'' revealing that they are investigating the information leak and contacting law enforcement authorities.

This is not the first time Uber has suffered a data breach, and in 2016 the account information of 57 million drivers and passengers was stolen, and a ransom of $ 100,000 (about 11 million yen at that time) was requested. was Uber accepted the payment, but the problem was that this fact was kept secret for over a year.
