Ceva Logistics, a major player in the global shipping and logistics sector, has experienced a cyber breach. Various companies depending on Ceva for their shipping needs report that their sensitive data was compromised in the attack.<\/p>\n

The cyber breach has impacted at least eight distribution centers throughout Europe involved in the shipment of products across the region, as stated by the company to TechCrunch.<\/p>\n

According to industry publication FreightWaves, the attack commenced on July 29, leading to delays in the shipment of numerous items housed in the affected facilities.<\/p>\n

Ceva, headquartered in France, serves as a critical shipping and logistics provider for businesses globally, facilitating the distribution of goods from production sites to consumer residences. The firm reported $18.3 billion in revenue for 2025 and operates more than a thousand warehouses worldwide.<\/p>\n

Recently, logistics and shipping firms have increasingly become targets for cybercriminals, given their access to and control over trucks and containers laden with merchandise, often diverting it to criminal enterprises.<\/p>\n

The breach at Ceva also led to a significant data theft, impacting a vast array of personal details belonging to retail clients that Ceva uses for home delivery services. Numerous companies disclosed that hackers accessed their customers\u2019 names, residential addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses stored within Ceva\u2019s systems.<\/p>\n

The Dutch e-commerce powerhouse Bol announced on its site that intruders accessed its warehousing partner, Ceva, and cautioned that their clients’ personal data may have been compromised. Bol anticipates delays and potential cancellations of certain customer orders due to the incident.<\/p>\n

In a similar vein, De Bijenkorf, a Dutch luxury retailer, confirmed shipping delays as a result of the theft of its clients’ data, according to local news outlets. Additionally, football club Ajax, banking entity ING, and eyeglass manufacturer Ace & Tate indicated that their customers\u2019 shipping details were also impacted.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Valve, the video game industry titan, informed its customers on August 7 that data had been extracted from Ceva\u2019s systems, notifying those who recently purchased its Steam hardware that their personal information was compromised in the breach. In a message to customers shared on Reddit, Valve indicated that Ceva retains their shipping and delivery data for 90 days post-order.<\/p>\n

Valve representative Doug Lombardi did not reply to a request for comments regarding the incident.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ceva acknowledged the cyberattack in a statement to TechCrunch.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn Aug. 1, CEVA Logistics informed affected clients that a cyber intrusion was disrupting part of its European contract logistics functions. Once the breach was detected, CEVA\u2019s cybersecurity teams promptly initiated their security protocols and commenced a comprehensive investigation that is still ongoing,\u201d as per the statement shared with TechCrunch. \u201cThe operational ramifications are confined to eight warehouses. No other CEVA systems globally were impacted, and all remaining operations proceed without issue.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ceva spokesperson Ryan Fisher declined to answer TechCrunch\u2019s inquiries about the breach, including whether the company is aware of the extent of personal data taken or if there has been any communication from the attackers, such as a ransom request.<\/p>\n

Ceva reported that some of its affected applications and services have been restored, and that it is collaborating with law enforcement. At the time of publication on Monday, Ceva\u2019s website was not loading properly.<\/p>\n

Investigative efforts by authorities in the Netherlands are underway regarding the incident.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mark Schenkel, a representative for the Dutch data protection authority, did not respond to TechCrunch\u2019s request for comment on Monday concerning the situation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
