The company admitted that bank account details &#8211; specifically International Bank Account Numbers (IBANs) &#8211; may also have been exposed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"v-p\">In a statement, Endesa clarified that login passwords remained secure and were not compromised during the breach.<\/p>\n<p class=\"v-p\">Following the discovery of the hack, Endesa immediately activated emergency security protocols. The company stated it has implemented &#8220;all necessary technical and organisational measures&#8221; to contain the fallout and prevent a repeat of the breach.<\/p>\n<p class=\"v-p\">Security teams have since managed to halt the unauthorised access by blocking the compromised entry points. <\/p>\n<p class=\"v-p\">The relevant authorities, including the Spanish data protection agency, have also been notified of the incident. &#8220;The investigation, both internally and with our suppliers, is ongoing so we can gain a full understanding of what happened and take any further action that may be necessary,&#8221; the company stated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"v-p\">So far, no fraudulent use of the data has been detected. Even so, malicious access could lead to attempts to usurp or impersonate customer identity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"v-p\"> Endesa urges customers to pay &#8220;special attention to any suspicious communications they may receive over the next few days and report any anomalies they detect&#8221;. Customers can report any issues to 800 760 366 or by e-mail (contactodpo@endesa.es).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Monday, 12 January 2026, 11:48 Spain&#8217;s leading electricity supply company Endesa has issued a warning following a &#8220;security&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1378,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[125],"tags":[1193,1199,1195,1197,1200,163,1198,1194,582,1196],"class_list":{"0":"post-1377","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-endesa","8":"tag-alerts","9":"tag-bank","10":"tag-customers","11":"tag-data","12":"tag-details","13":"tag-endesa","14":"tag-including","15":"tag-its","16":"tag-the","17":"tag-theft"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1377","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1377"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1377\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1378"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1377"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1377"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1377"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
