Uber and its Operations in the Country
Uber is now seeing a massive claim regarding a data breach on its systems where a hacker said that it was able to access the company's securities and managed to get its hands on customer data. However, the company is now going against this statement, saying that no such breaches were present in its systems, with no evidence of the attack.
The statement of the company clarifies the recent news regarding it, with Uber assuring its users that it is safe from any sensitive data theft from hackers.
Despite Uber being one of the largest ride-hailing apps in the country, it still is looking to expand its services to more users in the country, centering its growth this 2022. It focuses on the company's famous feature known as UberX Share, something which promotes a lower fee that puts together different users to split their trips.
The company's operations are growing in the country, and it serves as another effective system for public transportation with the experience centering on a more personal or private ride. It also centers on an application that many threat actors try to access, as it also holds personal information that is sensitive in nature.
