Sam Curry, a security engineer at Yuga Labs, communicated with the hacker and said that the breach is “a total compromise,” and that the hacker “pretty much has full access to Uber.” A representative of Uber announced that the security breach is being investigated, and law enforcement officials have been contacted.
