June 18 (Reuters) - Advanced Micro Devices ( AMD ) said
on Tuesday it was looking into claims that the company's data
was stolen in a hack by a cybercriminal organization.
"We are working closely with law enforcement officials and a
third-party hosting partner to investigate the claim and the
significance of the data," the chipmaker said in a statement.
According to media reports, an organization called
"Intelbroker" conducted a breach of AMD's data.
The breach covers a vast variety of sensitive information,
including data on future products, customer databases and
financial records, among others, the reports said.
Shares of AMD were marginally down in extended trading.
