Ecovacs: Robot manufacturer apparently victim of data theft

General News

Summary

Ecovacs is reportedly the target of a data theft claim from the Space Bears ransomware group. The attackers say they stole about two terabytes of data, but they have not disclosed what type of data they took. The company has not confirmed the breach, and the claim may turn out to be a bluff. The incident matters because Ecovacs makes connected household and garden robots that can hold sensitive development or customer data.
