JAPAN ORDERS LOCAL GIANTS LINE AND NAVER TO DISENTANGLE THEIR TECH STACKS

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Japan ordered messaging app LINE and its parent company NAVER to separate their tech stacks after a data breach exposed over 510,000 users' data. The government cited deep entanglements between the companies' systems and authentication services that enabled unauthorized access. They must now implement their own authentication tools and minimize interconnections.
