受此影响,Origin股价下跌2.5%[1]。澳大利亚股市整体也出现回调,ASX 200指数下跌0.3%至8867点[1],主要受油价暴跌拖累,布伦特原油价格下跌1.43%至87.09美元/桶[1]。澳洲央行行长Michele Bullock就供应冲击表态称,央行已准备好采取必要行动,"如果需要"将进一步提高利率[1]。
Australian energy giant Origin Energy has confirmed that a data security incident compromised the personal information of approximately 900,000 current and former customers [1]. The company first received notification of a data breach threat on July 2, with additional information suggesting a potential security event emerging on July 22, prompting Origin to take immediate action [1].
In response to the breach, Origin's Chief Executive Frank Calabria stated that the company would contact all 900,000 affected customers over the coming days [1]. The data has not appeared on the dark web, according to the company [1].
The disclosure weighed on market sentiment, with Origin Energy shares declining 2.5 percent [1]. The broader Australian share market also retreated, with the ASX 200 falling 0.3 percent to 8,867 points, driven partly by a sharp decline in oil prices [1]. Brent crude fell 1.43 percent to USD 87.09 per barrel [1]. Reserve Bank of Australia Governor Michele Bullock signaled the central bank's readiness to take necessary action in response to supply shocks, stating the bank would raise interest rates further "if needed" [1].
