Walt Disney Shuts Down Slack After Hack

Walt Disney goes fuses with the use of Slack as a company-wide workplace collaboration system, following a hack that leaked more than a terabyte of company data.

Disney CFO Hugh Johnston says most of the media and entertainment company’s businesses will stop using the service, now part of Salesforce, later this year.

Hacking group NullBulge has published data from thousands of Slack channels at the entertainment giant, including details of unannounced projects.

The data includes more than 44 million messages from Disney’s Slack workplace communications tool.
