Canadian authorities have arrested a man on suspicion he breached hundreds of accounts belonging to users of cloud storage provider Snowflake and used that access to steal personal data belonging to millions of people, authorities said Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cFollowing a request by the United States, Alexander Moucka (aka Connor Moucka) was arrested on a provisional arrest warrant on Wednesday, October 30, 2024,\u201d an official with the Canada Department of Justice wrote in an email Tuesday. \u201cHe appeared in court later that afternoon, and his case was adjourned to Tuesday, November 5, 2024. As extradition requests are considered confidential state-to-state communications, we cannot comment further on this case.\u201d<\/p>\n

Word of the arrest first came from Bloomberg News<\/a> and was later confirmed by 404 Media<\/a>.<\/p>\n
