Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

A hacker going by the name CoreInjection claimed to have stolen a highly sensitive dataset from Check Point containing internal network maps and architectural diagrams, user credentials, employee connect information, and proprietary source code. Check Point responded to these allegations by saying that this was an old, known security event with a limited scope that did not impact any customer data. Hudson Rock co-founder Alon Gal expressed skepticism of both claims and stated that the screenshots the hacker posted likely indicated a severity between the two claims.
