Millions affected by MOVEit mass-hacks as list of casualties continues to grow
Reading Time: 2 minutesHackers have compromised the personal data of more than 15.5 million individuals by exploiting a security vulnerability in the MOVEit file transfer tool, and the number of victim organizations continues to grow.
This includes approximately 3.5 million Oregon driver’s license holders; roughly 6 million Louisiana residents; some 770,000 members of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System; between 2.5 and 2.7 million Genworth Finance clients; approximately 1.5 million customers of insurance provider Wilton Reassurance; more than 170,000 beneficiaries of the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System; and more than half a million Talcott Resolution customers.
Callow noted that at least seven of the known MOVEit victims are U.S. universities, and 16 are U.S. public sector organizations.
It’s not just government departments that have been targeted.
Clop, which claimed responsibility for the widespread attacks, has added tens of new victims to its leak site this week alone, including banks, consultancy and legal companies, and energy giants.
The exact number of impacted organizations, and subsequently breached individuals, remains unknown. In a post on its leak site, Clop claims to have compromised ‘hundreds’ of organizations, which means that more victims are likely to come to light in the coming days and weeks.
In light of this latest wave of mass attacks, U.S. State Department earlier this month offered a $10 million bounty for information on the Clop ransomware group, a Russia-linked gang that was also responsible for previous mass-attacks exploiting flaws in Fortra’s GoAnywhere file transfer tool and Accellion’s file transfer application.
