Kraken reported receiving a ransom demand, with criminals threatening to release customer information. Kraken stated that the number of customer accounts that could have been viewed in the two breaches was extremely small—approximately 2,000 in total (0.02% of the total customer base). Kraken stated that the system was never compromised; funds were never at risk; they would not pay any fees to these criminals; and they would never negotiate with any criminals.
