ACCA Networks Co., a high-speed Internet-access wholesaler, confirmed Thursday that information on some of its customers has been leaked, adding that the leak, which apparently occurred about a year ago, may involve data on about 1.4 million people.
ACCA President Yoshio Sakata said the company acknowledges that personal data on at least 201 customers have been leaked to a third party. He did not rule out the possibility that data on all of ACCA's 1.1 million customers have been leaked, as well as data on some 300,000 people who once were subscribers to the company's services.
Sakata said the company is trying to figure out how the leak occurred.
