Coinbase denies systems breach, says vendor exposed customer data

The cryptocurrency exchange emphasized that while customer contact information was potentially compromised, there was no indication that attackers gained access to Coinbase's own systems or sensitive financial data.

Data exposure source

The incident occurred in the systems of Amplitude, a third-party analytics provider used by Coinbase, rather than in the exchange's internal infrastructure. This distinction is crucial for understanding the scope and origin of the data exposure.
