Mexico’s president said Wednesday that the government is investigating an alleged ransomware hack of her administration’s legal affairs office after what appeared to be samples of personal information from a database of government employees were posted online.
The website Cybernews said a group called Ransomhub had posted a sample of apparently hacked government files on the dark web. Ransomhub is reportedly giving the government 10 days to pay an undisclosed sum or it will make public about 313 gigbytes of files.
