Trans-Northern Pipelines has confirmed its internal network was breached in November 2023 and that it's now investigating claims of data theft made by the ALPHV/BlackCat ransomware gang.
While ALPHV's claims were not directly mentioned by Dornan when asked by BleepingComputer for confirmation, the ransomware gang says its operators stole 183GB of documents from the company's network.
The allegedly stolen files have now been published on ALPHV's data leak site, and the ransomware group has also added contact information for several TNPI employees to the same leak page.
ALPHV emerged over two years ago, in November 2021, and is believed to be a rebrand of the DarkSide and BlackMatter ransomware operations.
