On Monday, New Year's Eve, a group of hackers announced they broke a law firm handling cases related to 11's September attacks. The team threatened to publish internal records if it does not take ransom from the companies involved.
The group called The Dark Overlord has previously hit a studio production of Netflix, as well as numerous medical centers and private businesses throughout the United States. This announcement marks a small development in the strategy of The Dark Overlord group, which now seems to be using the media to exercise pressure to her victims.
In her Pastebin announcement, The Dark Overlord mentions several insurance and law firms, namely Hiscox Syndicates Ltd, Lloyds of London and Silverstein Properties.
"Hiscox Syndicates Ltd and Lloyds London are among the largest insurance companies in the world that insure everything from the smallest companies to some of the largest in the world such as the World Trade Centers," the statement said.
At present we do not know exactly what files the team has stolen, but it seems to be trying to exploit the conspiracy theories surrounding the 11 September attacks.
"We will provide many answers to the 9.11 conspiracies through the 18.000 secret documents we obtained," he said. a tweet on Monday.
A Representative of the Hiscox Group confirmed on the Motherboard that the hackers had broken a law firm that advised the company and probably stole records related to 11's September attacks.
"Our law firm systems are not connected to Hiscox IT infrastructure and Hiscox systems were not affected by this incident."
Hiscox has just been notified of the breach data της δικηγορικής εταιρίας, έλαβε μέτρα και ενημέρωσε τους εμπλεκόμενους, όπως απαιτείται. Θα συνεχίσουμε να συνεργαζόμαστε με τις αρχές επιβολής του νόμου τόσο στο Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο όσο και στις ΗΠΑ για το theme this.
The hacking team published a few letters, emails and other documents reported by various law firms, such as the Transport Security Administration (TSA) and the Federal Aviation Administration. The leaked documents are not important, but the group says it can leak more.
In the text published by The Dark Overlord, it includes a link to an 10GB file with allegedly stolen files. Files are encrypted, but hackers are threatening to release decryption keys, unless their victims pay the ransom they requested in Bitcoin.
Pay the fuck up, or we're going to bury you with this. If you continue to fail us, we'll escalate these releases by releasing the keys, each time a Layer is opened, a new wave of liability will fall upon you
