Submission + - SPAM: LockBit hacker gang leaks stolen Boeing files
LockBit, a ransomware gang that extorts its victims by encrypting their systems and releasing their data unless payment is made, published the stolen Boeing files on its darkweb site early Friday.
The group was also tied to a Thursday cyber attack on the US financial services division of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC), the world's largest bank by assets.
The breach obstructed ICBC's ability to settle US Treasuries transactions, forcing the bank to send couriers with USB drives around Manhattan to clear the deals in an astonishing disruption to the US financial system, Bloomberg reported.
'We've seen back-to-back attacks against a massive defense contractor and a massive financial institution. It's concerning,' Brett Callow, a threat analyst with cybersecurity firm Emsisoft, told DailyMail.com.
