Security News > 2024 > February > Epic Games: "Zero evidence" we were hacked by Mogilevich gang
Epic Games said they found zero evidence of a cyberattack or data theft after the Mogilevich extortion group claimed to have breached the company's servers.
"We are investigating but there is currently zero evidence that these claims are legitimate," Epic Games told BleepingComputer in a statement.
"Mogilievich has not contacted Epic or provided any proof of the veracity of these allegations."
Epic Games told BleepingComputer that they immediately began investigating the incident after seeing a screenshot of the dark web page promoting the breach and attempted to contact the threat actor.
Yesterday, after news of the alleged breach spread through Twitter, I spoke to a representative of the Mogilevich extortion group, asking if they would share proof of the attack.
Mogilevich is a relatively new extortion group that claims to have breached numerous organizations, including Ireland's Department of Foreign Affairs and Infinity USA. However, unlike other extortion groups, Mogilevich does not share samples of stolen data and claim only to be selling directly to proven buyers.
