"MOVEit Hack: Number of Impacted Organizations Exceeds 340"

Brett Callow, a threat analyst at Emsisoft, has been monitoring the MOVEit attack carried out by a notorious cybercrime gang, and he is currently aware of 347 impacted organizations, including 58 educational institutions in the United States. Callow noted that the number of impacted organizations includes both ones that were directly affected and ones that were indirectly hit. Callow believes more than 18.6 million individuals had their data compromised as a result of the MOVEit hack. Callow warned that the Cl0p ransomware group conducted the attack and is in possession of a massive quantity of data that could be useful for business email compromise (BEC) and phishing attacks.
