Coinbase首席執行官Brian Armstrong向偷走客戶數據的黑客提供2000萬美元的賞金

一家加密貨幣公司的首席執行官對黑客提出了一個有趣的回應，要求對比特幣進行了2000萬美元的要求。

The CEO of crypto giant Coinbase has issued an interesting response to hackers who demanded $20 million in Bitcoins.

加密巨頭Coinbase的首席執行官對要求擁有2000萬美元比特幣的黑客發表了有趣的回應。

Coinbase confirmed this week that cyberpunks managed to steal its customer data, as well as government-issued identity documents, according to TechCrunch.

Coinbase本週證實，Cyber​​punks設法竊取了其客戶數據以及政府發行的身份文件。

As per is legally-required filing with US regulators, the company claimed a hacker told Coinbase it had obtained customer account information - and demanded a hefty sum of $20 million in Bitcoin in exchange for not publishing the stolen information.

根據該公司向美國監管機構提交法律要求的文件，該公司聲稱一名黑客告訴Coinbase，它已經獲得了客戶帳戶信息 - 並要求擁有2000萬美元的比特幣，以換取不發布被盜信息的款項。

Now, it's billionaire CEO Brian Armstrong has issued a public message of defiance in response to the purported 'bribery' and 'ransom note,' with a hefty monetary offer to anyone who can help out.

現在，億萬富翁的首席執行官布萊恩·阿姆斯特朗（Brian Armstrong）發表了公開反對的信息，以回應所謂的“賄賂”和“贖金票據”，並向任何可以提供幫助的人提供了大量的貨幣報價。

“We’d like to do things transparently here at Coinbase, and so I’m going to respond to these attackers.

“我們想在Coinbase透明地做事，因此我將回應這些攻擊者。

“We are not going to pay your ransom. In fact, I have a few next steps in mind.”

“我們不會支付您的贖金。實際上，我要記住下一步。”

Explaining what happened, Armstong said Coinbase conducted an investigation and found the attackers had been approaching its employees, overseas customer support agents, 'looking for a weak link' and someone who would 'accept a bribe.'

Armstong說，Coinbase在解釋發生了什麼事，進行了調查，發現攻擊者一直在接近其僱員，海外客戶支持代理商，“尋找薄弱環節”，並且有人會“接受賄賂”。

The 42-year-old continued that the staff had limited access to customer information, adding: “There was no passwords or private keys or funds access as part of this, but customer support agents do have access to personal information, like name, date of birth, address, et cetera.

這位42歲的年輕人繼續說，員工對客戶信息的訪問有限，並補充說：“沒有密碼，私鑰或資金訪問權限，但客戶支持代理人確實可以訪問個人信息，例如姓名，出生日期，地址等。

“And attackers still want access to this information because it allows them to social engineering attacks where they can call our customers, impersonating Coinbase customer support and try to trick them into sending their funds to the attacker.”

“而且攻擊者仍然需要訪問此信息，因為它使他們能夠在可以打電話給我們的客戶的社會工程攻擊中，冒充Coinbase客戶的支持，並試圖欺騙他們將資金發送給攻擊者。”

Unfortunately, Armstrong continued, the cyber criminals did find 'a few bad apples' in the company, but reassured customers that Coinbase’s systems are designed to 'mitigate' against such attacks.

不幸的是，阿姆斯特朗繼續說，網絡罪犯確實在公司中發現了“一些壞蘋果”，但是向客戶保證，Coinbase的系統旨在“減輕”此類攻擊。

He said less than one percent of its monthly transacting users have been affected.

他說，不到每月交易用戶中只有不到百分之一受到影響。

“But this is still unacceptable,” he continued as he laid out his plan to tackle the situation.

“但這仍然是不可接受的，”他制定了解決局勢的計劃時繼續說道。

First, he said affected customers will be reimbursed and contacted, while the company makes moves to 'harden' its systems and relocate some of its operations.

首先，他說，受影響的客戶將得到報銷和聯繫，而該公司則採取行動“硬化”其係統並搬遷其某些運營。

Finally, Armstrong revealed Coinbase’s unusual offer.

最後，阿姆斯特朗透露了Coinbase的不尋常報價。

“Instead of paying this $20 million ransom, we’re turning it around. We’re putting out a $20 million reward for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of these attackers.”

“我們沒有支付這筆2000萬美元的贖金，而是我們將其拒之門外。我們為導致逮捕和定罪的任何信息提供了2000萬美元的獎勵。”

Reminiscent of Liam Neeson’s iconic line in Taken, he concluded: “For these would-be extortionists, or anyone seeking to harm Coinbase customers, know that we will prosecute and bring you to justice.”

他總結說，讓人想起利亞姆·尼森（Liam Neeson）的標誌性線條：“對於這些可能的勒索主義者，或任何試圖傷害Coinbase客戶的人，都知道我們將起訴並將您帶到繩子上。”

According to the tech outlet, staff involved in the breach have been let go from the company.

根據技術渠道的說法，涉及違規行為的員工已被公司釋放。

In another statement on Twitter, Coinbase said cyber criminals 'bribed and recruited rogue overseas support agents' to pull the data, adding: "No passwords, private keys, or funds were exposed. Prime accounts are untouched. We will reimburse impacted customers."

Coinbase在Twitter上的另一份聲明中說，網絡罪犯賄賂並招募了流氓海外支持代理商”來提取數據，並補充說：“沒有密碼，私鑰或資金遭​​到曝光。未觸及主要帳戶。我們將償還受影響的客戶。 ”
