According to representatives of Etana, data leakageoccurred on April 18 - an unauthorized external user gained access to the client interface. However, the company emphasizes that the user’s assets remained intact.

“It is likely that some Etana customer data was available for viewing during unauthorized access to the system, - representatives of the company explain. -Internal security systems were activated, including protocols for processing requests to withdraw client funds. This made it possible to neutralize the threat.”

The types of data that could be accessedinclude customer names, email addresses, physical addresses, and phone numbers. Nevertheless, the company excludes the leakage of documents such as, for example, driver's licenses or passports.

Etana gives Kraken customers the opportunity to use five popular fiat currencies - the US dollar, the euro, the Canadian dollar, the British pound and the Japanese yen.
