Cisco’s Christmas Data Leak Drama: Hackers Claim 4.5 TB Breach, Cisco Says “No Biggie”
Hackers claim to have released a second batch of data from the Cisco data incident. The leak, allegedly from a 4.5 TB trove, includes sensitive files and network configurations. Cisco acknowledges the incident but denies any sensitive data was compromised, highlighting ongoing issues with misconfigured systems in cybersecurity.

Hot Take:
Cisco’s DevHub left more exposed than a sunbather at a nudist beach, and IntelBroker couldn’t resist taking a peek. Now, Cisco’s in a pickle, claiming it’s just a drizzle while everyone else is shouting “tsunami!”
Key Points:
- IntelBroker released 4.84 GB of data, claiming it’s part of a 4.5 TB trove from a 2024 breach.
- Leaked data includes software artifacts, network configurations, and cloud server images.
- The breach exploited a misconfigured, public-facing DevHub resource with no password protection.
- Cisco acknowledged the incident but stated no sensitive data was compromised, conflicting with hacker claims.
- IntelBroker has a history of high-profile breaches, including Apple, AMD, and Europol.
