Security News > 2024 > May > Christie’s confirms breach after RansomHub threatens to leak data
Yesterday, the RansomHub ransomware group added Christie's on its extortion page on the dark web, claiming it had breached the company and stole sensitive client data.
A Christie's spokesperson confirmed to BleepingComputer that the company had suffered a data breach that impacted some clients.
RansomHub listed Christie's on its extortion portal, giving the company a little over five days at the time of writing, before they leak the company's stolen data.
While many consider RansomHub to be a ransomware gang, no encryptor has been found for the operation, indicating that they currently only conduct data theft attacks or partner with other threat actors to help extort companies.
