European Commission's Data Stolen in Hack on AWS Account

Bloomberg March 27, 2026

The European Commission was hit by a cyberattack that may have resulted in the theft of internal data, months after another incident potentially exposed some staff details.

The European Union’s executive arm experienced a breach on March 24, a spokesman said. The attack struck the commission’s Amazon Web Services account before being detected and blocked. An internal investigation is ongoing to establish the extent of the breach, he said.
