"Nearly 1,000 Organizations, 60 Million Individuals Impacted by MOVEit Hack"

According to security researchers at Emsisoft, as of August 24, 988 organizations and 59,200,000 individuals have been impacted by the recent MOVEit campaign conducted by the Russian-speaking Cl0p ransomware group.  The researchers noted that these numbers include both directly and indirectly impacted entities.  The researchers created a list of organizations that may have exposed the information of more than one million individuals: Maximus, Pôle Emploi, Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles, Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing, Oregon Department of Transportation, Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America, Genworth, PH Tech, Milliman Solutions, and Wilton Reassurance Company.  Cl0p, which is estimated to have earned as much as $100 million as a result of this campaign, has started leaking the data of victims who have refused to pay up.  The researchers stated that on August 14 and 15, the cybercriminals leaked nearly 1 Tb of information allegedly stolen from 16 of the victims.  These victims include UCLA, Siemens Energy, Cognizant, and cybersecurity firms Norton LifeLock and Netscout.
