The attackers accessed Rockstar's Snowflake data warehouse account by first compromising Anodot, an AI-powered analytics platform. Stolen data reportedly includes in-game revenue metrics, player behavior tracking, and game economy data for GTA Online and Red Dead Online. Rockstar acknowledged a limited breach of non-material company information, while Snowflake clarified its own platform was not compromised. ShinyHunters has a history of targeting major corporations, having been linked to over 160 Snowflake customer breaches in 2024 including Ticketmaster and Santander. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
