Fortra told breached companies their data was safe
Reading Time: < 1 minutesAs we have been reporting, the Clop ransomware gang exploited a newly discovered bug in Fortra’s GoAnywhere file transfer software, used by thousands of organizations to transfer sensitive data over the internet. The bug allowed the ransomware gang to hack in and carry out a mass ransomware attack on January 31. The Russia-linked Clop gang claimed it compromised about 130 organizations who were using the vulnerable GoAnywhere tool at the time of the ransomware attack.
Now, new victims are coming to light.
As the number of victims grows, more details are also beginning to come to light about how Fortra handled the incident.
When asked about this by email, Fortra spokesperson Rachel Woodford would not comment but did not dispute what the two organizations had told us or that Fortra had told customers their data was safe. Fortra did not make CISO Chris Reffkin available for an interview.
It follows other additions to its leak pages, including Colombian energy giant Grupo Vanti, Australian gambling giant Crown Resorts, and Medex Healthcare.
Fortra has not yet publicly confirmed its January breach beyond an inaccessible advisory on its website. Fortra’s most recent press release on March 16 announced that the company had been awarded ‘best cybersecurity company’ by the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards, an industry award paid for by submitting companies and which Fortra sponsors.
