Yes, I am the copyright holder.
Please describe the nature of your copyright ownership or authorization to act on the owner's behalf.
The project is a completely private project which was deployed to a public domain by mistake by one of the developers a year ago and has been forked since. There is no online link to it because it is managed on a private BitBucket account.
Since there has never been an intention to release the private sources, there are no legal licensing or copyright documents.
A periodical scan by a 3rd party company (CynerArk) found secret credentials and contacted us.
The repo includes sources for a product that was acquired less than a year ago by Verifone.
I’m [private] of the acquired company, thus it is my responsibility to make sure that Verifone’s private assets will not be in a public domain.
I'm a Verifone employee.
