Coupang CISO says insider accessed private key for API; parliament questions possible DB breach
South Korea’s parliament intensified scrutiny of Coupang’s data leak after its CISO said an employee with a privileged role accessed a private signing key used for tokens. Lawmakers criticised the company for refusing to submit key security documents and raised concerns that the breach could extend beyond API access. Security experts also questioned Coupang’s handling of access rights. A committee chair warned that a hearing could follow if documents remain withheld.
