The programmers, after publishing the CityBee database with customer data, are reported to have revealed the names, personal identification numbers, as well as phone numbers, email and residential addresses, driver’s license numbers, and encrypted passwords. of the company’s clients.

According to Raimondas Andrijauskas, director of the State Data Protection Inspectorate, according to preliminary information, CityBee did not have copies of the driver’s licenses.

Saulius Šuminas, deputy general manager of Regitra, Delfi emphasized that only law enforcement officers fighting crime in the digital space can say what are the possible scenarios for the use of information in the CityBee customer database and how real and dangerous they are.

“Maybe you can create fake accounts or do something similar. It’s hard to say how dangerous it is in this context, we should look at it from the position of a scammer,” he commented.

However, the specialist stressed, it should be recognized that the data has already been made public and the desire to exchange all documents for new ones is not necessarily rational.

“When changing a driver’s license, only the date and number of its validity will change. Other data will remain the same. That is why I do not see a particular risk for those who will not change their certificate. The information has already been leaked and not will be removed, S. Šumin emphasized, emphasizing that Regitra never provided data to CityBee, but that it was completed by the company’s customers in the company’s system. “Therefore, you must seriously evaluate whether you really need to change your driver’s license “.
