"LockBit Alleges Ransomware Attack Against Digital Security Company Entrust"

The LockBit ransomware group is suspected of having been responsible for the June ransomware attack against Entrust, a leading provider of digital security. The security company found no evidence that the incident had harmed the performance or security of their products or services, which are fully operational and run in separate, air-gapped environments from their internal systems. However, a well-known ransomware gang is believed to be the one that hit Entrust after paying "network access sellers" for access to the corporate network, according to Vitali Kremez, CEO of AdvIntel. According to security expert Dominic Alvieri, LockBit set up a specific data leak page for Entrust on their website and announced that they would release all of the stolen information soon. When ransomware gangs publish data on their data leak sites, the victim is more likely to return to the negotiating table. Entrust has not engaged in negotiations with the ransomware operation or is unwilling to comply with its demands, as suggested by LockBit's declaration that they will reveal all data. Entrust was contacted for further confirmation of the LockBit attack, but no response has been received as of yet. LockBit is now considered one of the most active ransomware operations, with its public-facing operation, "LockBitSupp," openly interacting with threat actors and cybersecurity experts. This article continues to discuss the alleged LockBit ransomware attack faced by the digital security company Entrust.
