Cannabis company Stiiizy says hackers accessed customers’ ID documents
Los Angeles-based cannabis brand Stiiizy has confirmed that hackers accessed sensitive customer data, including government-issued documents and medical cannabis cards, during a November cyberattack.
According to a data breach notice filed with California’s attorney general this week, Stiiizy was notified by its point-of-sale processing vendor that an “organized cybercrime group” had compromised the data from some of its retail locations. The company has not yet disclosed how many customers were affected, but stated that the incident impacted four of its retail locations in California.
The stolen information includes identification documents such as driver’s licenses and passports, as well as medical cannabis cards. Additionally, hackers accessed customer names, addresses, dates of birth, transaction data, and other unspecified personal information.
Stiiizy operates 39 stores across the United States and has not responded to TechCrunch’s questions regarding the incident.
