The cryptocurrency exchange Binance became the target of a hacking attack in May 2025. According to sources, the attackers attempted to gain access to the company's internal systems using social engineering methods.

This was reported by Bloomberg.

In particular, cybercriminals tried to bribe employees of Binance's support service, offering monetary rewards for access to confidential information. However, thanks to internal security systems and prompt response, the attack was timely detected and neutralized.

Binance did not suffer any data breach or loss of user assets. The company does not comment on the details of the incident but assures that the platform is operating normally, and all security measures are in heightened mode.

This incident underscores the relevance of threats in the cryptocurrency sector and the need for continuous strengthening of cybersecurity.
