Security News > 2024 > July > Rite Aid confirms data breach after June ransomware attack
Pharmacy giant Rite Aid confirmed a data breach after suffering a cyberattack in June, which was claimed by the RansomHub ransomware operation.
The company told BleepingComputer on Friday that it's currently investigating a cyberattack detected in June and working on sending data breach notifications to customers affected by the resulting data breach.
While Rite Aid didn't share what customer data was accessed in the breach or how many individuals were affected, it said that the data breach doesn't impact health or financial information.
Even though Rite Aid has yet to share who was behind the June attack, the statement came after BleepingComputer reached out to confirm the RansomHub ransomware gang's claims that it breached the pharmacy giant's systems and stole customers' data.
After adding Rite Aid to its leak site because the company supposedly stopped negotiating a ransom, the ransomware gang shared a screenshot of some of the allegedly stolen data as proof, saying that everything would be leaked in two weeks.
