New report reveals Hollywood studios still dangerously exposed to cyber risks
A new report by Red Sift reveals that major Hollywood studios remain vulnerable to cyber breaches despite past incidents. The US entertainment industry is still exposed to state-sponsored cyber attacks due to poor email security.
The US entertainment industry, particularly TV and movie studios, remains vulnerable to cyber breaches. A report by Red Sift found that 71% of studios operate with no email security enforcement, making them highly susceptible to impersonation and phishing attacks. Major studios such as Paramount have recently suffered leaks, with the full version of 'The Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender' being leaked online. The 2014 Sony hack highlighted the industry's cybersecurity weaknesses, but little has changed since. More than two-thirds of major Hollywood studios can be impersonated instantly via email, with Universal being the only studio that actively blocks spoofed emails. The lack of email security leaves the industry open to coordinated cyber incidents, including executive impersonation and content leaks.
