On the FAQ section of the page, Samsung quickly clarifies that the hacker was unable to siphon off data pertaining to Social Security Numbers, credit card /debit card details, and other sensitive data stored on Samsung’s servers. However, the section does talk about the likelihood of the hacker gaining access to other important information. These range from name, contact numbers, and date of birth-related information — to product registration details — all of which were saved on the affected Samsung servers.
Through the FAQ section, Samsung also wants to make it amply clear to U.S. consumers that the data breach incident has no bearing on the overall security of Samsung-made smartphones. These devices continue to remain as secure as ever, Samsung claims. Despite this, in the interest of consumer safety, Samsung has asked its users to take all necessary precautions before divulging personal information on dubious web pages.
Samsung also asks users to always remain cautious of clicking links or downloading attachments that they don’t know the contents of. The company also asserted that it will take all possible measures to avoid such incidents in the future. Although it remains to be seen how successful Samsung would be, given that the company said something on similar lines following a similar incident a few months ago.
