The past week has been quite eventful! Much of my time was dedicated to Ticketmaster, which caused a stir in the media due to a potential data breach that had not been officially confirmed at the time. As anticipated, confirmation of the breach arrived late on a Friday afternoon, and since then, we have uncovered more details about the severity of the situation. I will delve deeper into this topic in Weekly Update 403, and by the time this message is published, we will likely have more information regarding the Snowflake incident as well.
