Compliance platform Au10tix said that although a credential was leaked, there is no evidence that it was used to obtain customer data, and Coinbase said it is unaware of any breach.
On June 27, crypto exchange Coinbase denied any knowledge of a breach of its customers’ data associated with the Au10tix compliance platform. The statement follows a June 26 report that claimed Au10tix employee credentials had been leaked on Telegram. The Au10tix website shows the Coinbase logo, seemingly implying that Coinbase is one of its clients.
“We are not aware of any Coinbase data exposure at this time and will continue to monitor the situation,” a Coinbase representative told Cointelegraph.
Au10tix is an identity verification platform that claims to be used by Fiverr, TikTok, Uber, X, Coinbase and many other platforms. It stores users’ photo IDs and other identifying information on behalf of the platforms it serves.
