The Clop ransomware gang has begun extorting companies whose data was stolen using a zero-day vulnerability in the Fortra GoAnywhere MFT secure file-sharing solution.
The day after the release of the GoAnywhere patch, the Clop ransomware gang contacted BleepingComputer and said they were responsible for the attacks.
Two companies, Community Health Systems and Hatch Bank, disclosed that data was stolen in the GoAnywhere MFT attacks.
Last night, the Clop ransomware gang began publicly exploiting victims of the GoAnywhere attacks by adding seven new companies to their data leak site.
The entries on the data leak site all state that the release of data is "Coming soon" but include screenshots of allegedly stolen data.
BleepingComputer has been told that victims have begun to receive ransom demands from the ransomware gang.
