THE HAGUE: Dutch-based chip maker Nexperia said April 12 it has launched a probe after its computer servers were hacked last month, with a local media reporting that large quantities of data may have been stolen.

Chinese-owned Nexperia, which makes semiconductors and other electronic products, said it “became aware that an unauthorised third party accessed certain Nexperia IT servers in March 2024”.
