How do video game companies like Game Freak keep getting hacked?
Game Freak suffered a major hack resulting in over 2,600 pieces of employee data and reportedly 1 TB of Pokémon game data being stolen, including source code for upcoming games. The breach likely occurred through phishing or social engineering. According to Professor Justin Cappos, “one of the hard things about playing defense is that you have to play defense correctly all the time... One of them messes up and you're in trouble."
