# Crook hawks millions of records allegedly plundered from corporate Azure tenants

**[The Register](https://daily.dev/sources/theregister)** · 3 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A criminal actor is reportedly selling millions of records allegedly stolen from corporate Azure tenants, with companies including McDonald's, Vodafone, TCS, and Kyndryl named as affected. Researchers point to compromised credentials as the likely attack vector, though the extraction of much of the page content is boilerplate site navigation and unrelated headline links rather than substantive detail on the breach itself.
