Comic Seymour Stays Suspended as NTT Solmare Tracks Cause of October 15 Breach

Comic Seymour remains offline after NTT Solmare emergency-stopped the e-book store on October 15 over unauthorized third-party access. In a third report posted October 18, the operator said the intrusion route and attack method have been identified and countermeasures are underway, but no reopening date is set. Leaked membership data so far includes email addresses, hashed passwords, dates of birth, gender, and nicknames; card data was not in the affected system.

NTT Solmare's third report also found that some system log files were viewed and obtained, and the company is checking whether those logs hold membership information. The number of affected records is still under investigation, and users with confirmed leaks will be contacted in sequence. The report says credit card information is not held in the affected system and has not leaked, and that purchase history and the MY Bookshelf feature show no confirmed leakage, loss, or corruption. Reopening depends on further safety checks and coordination with relevant authorities, and the date will be announced once finalized.
