The group claiming responsibility has reported that about 1 TB of sensitive data has been stolen. This is said to include employee visa records, customer banking details and “proprietary business information” from the company’s corporate network in Japan, the US and Canada.

However, in an official statement, Capcom said there was “no indication” that any customer information had been breached and that it turned out to be working with police and “other” concerned officials.

Starting early in the morning of November 2, 2020, some Capcom Group networks experienced problems that affected the access of some systems, including email and file servers. The company has confirmed that this was due to unauthorized access by a third party and by November 2 it has suspended some functions of its internal networks. In addition, it states that there is currently no indication that any customer information has been breached. The incident did not affect the company’s links to play games online or for access to its various websites.

Currently, Comcom is consulting with the police as well as other concerned officials while both are conducting investigations and taking steps to re-establish its systems. The Company will continue to provide updates as the facts become clearer through its websites and other means.

As noted, Capcom will continue to provide relevant updates through its websites and other media, so if we hear of any developments, we will let you know.
