VerifiedCybersecurity Principles and Risks

An organization has received complaints from several customers that their data was breached. However, following an investigation, the organization cannot identify any indicators of compromise. Which type of attack was the MOST likely cause of the breach?

Explanation

A supply chain attack compromises data through a trusted external supplier, vendor, or service provider. Because the compromise may occur outside the organization’s own systems, its internal investigation can find no indicators of compromise even though customer data was exposed.
