Ceva Logistics, one of the world\u2019s largest shipping and logistics giants, has been hacked. Several companies that rely on Ceva for shipping their products to their customers say that their personal information was also stolen in the breach.<\/p>\n
The cyberattack on Ceva is affecting at least eight warehouses across Europe used for shipping goods across the continent, the company told TechCrunch.<\/p>\n
Industry news site FreightWaves<\/a> reports that the hack began on July 29 and is causing shipping delays for many of the goods in affected warehouses.<\/p>\n Ceva is a France-headquartered shipping and logistics giant that companies around the world rely on to deliver their goods from their assembly lines to customer homes. The company, which brought in $18.3 billion in revenue in 2025, has over a thousand warehouses across the world.<\/p>\n Shipping and logistics giants have become a growing target for cybercriminals in recent years<\/a> for their ability to access and hijack trucks and containers to get goods into the hands of real-world gangs<\/a>.<\/p>\n The hack at Ceva also resulted in a data breach, affecting a large amount of personal information belonging to retail customers that Ceva relies on for delivering goods to people\u2019s home addresses. Several companies reported that hackers took their customers\u2019 names, home addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses used to place their orders from Ceva\u2019s systems.<\/p>\n Dutch online retail giant Bol said on its website<\/a> that hackers gained access to systems of its warehousing partner, Ceva, and warned that their customers\u2019 data may have been taken. Bol also said<\/a> that it expects delays and some customer orders to be canceled as a result of the incident.<\/p>\n De Bijenkorf, another Dutch luxury retailer, similarly confirmed<\/a> order delays following the theft of its customers\u2019 data, per local media<\/a>. Football club Ajax, banking giant ING, and eyeglass maker Ace & Tate also reported<\/a> that customers\u2019 shipping information was affected.\u00a0<\/p>\n Video game giant Valve told customers<\/a> that it learned on August 7 that data was taken from Ceva\u2019s systems, and alerted customers who recently bought its Steam hardware that they had personal information taken in the incident. Valve said in its note to customers, posted to Reddit<\/a>, that Ceva stores their shipping and delivery information for 90 days following their order.<\/p>\n Valve spokesperson Doug Lombardi did not respond to a request for comment about the incident.\u00a0<\/p>\n Ceva confirmed in a statement to TechCrunch that it was experiencing a cyberattack.<\/p>\n \u201cOn Aug. 1, CEVA Logistics confirmed to affected customers that a cyber intrusion was impacting part of its European contract logistics operations. As soon as the incident was identified, CEVA\u2019s cybersecurity teams immediately activated its security protocols and launched a thorough investigation, which is still ongoing,\u201d per the statement provided to TechCrunch. \u201cThe operational impact is limited to eight warehouses. No other CEVA systems globally were affected, and all other operations continue without incident.\u201d<\/p>\n Ceva spokesperson Ryan Fisher would not answer TechCrunch\u2019s questions about the incident, such as if the company knows how much personal data was taken, or if Ceva has received any communication from the hackers, such as a ransom demand.<\/p>\n Ceva said some of its affected applications and services are back online, and that it was working with the authorities. Ceva\u2019s website was not properly loading at the time of publication on Monday.<\/p>\n Authorities in the Netherlands are said to be investigating the incident.\u00a0<\/p>\n Mark Schenkel, a spokesperson for the Dutch data protection authority, told TechCrunch that the agency has received data breach reports from 10 organizations in relation to the incident.<\/p>\n Updated with comment from Schenkel.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission<\/a>.
