A recent article published by DataBreaches.net by journalist Dissent addresses one of the most controversial issues in modern cybersecurity: the payment of ransoms following a cyberattack and the consequences such decisions can have not only on the companies involved, but also on the individuals whose data has been compromised.

"Agreement:" reached in ShinyHunter's breach of Infrastructure's Canvas LMS .... the cybercrime gang returned the stolen data (which includes usernames, email addresses, course names, enrollment information, and messages) and provided shred logs confirming its destruction.
While not confirmed, it looks like a ransom payment was made. A webinar on May 13 may provide more details. https://www.instructure.com/incident_update #Breach #Hackers #ShinyHunters #Infrastructure #CanvasLMS #LMS #StudentData #DataPrivacy #Ransom #RansomWare #CyberCrime

NEW: A Silent Threat, Loud Consequences: Ransom Group Hits Law Firms Hard
#SilentRansomGroup has leaked data from 38 law firms so far -- and they tell me most law firms do pay them. That means.... (counting on fingers and toes...) they've hit a heckuva lot of law firms.
And I'm beginning to get a feel for how their negotiations go when they fail.

Cyber sleuths uncover nefarious techniques to take malware (dubbed Omnistealer) posted in GitHub and use social engineering techniques to get it embedded into blockchains where the malware may be stored forever and make it difficult to root out as the chains grow.

There's a courier service here that handles last-mile delivery of most of my orders from AliExpress (so, a lot of packages).
Every time a package from their international courier finishes clearing customs and is then handed over to this last-mile courier, I get an automated email with the subject "We have your package!".
It always makes me think they're holding it for ransom or something ๐

Alleged Scattered Spider members Thalha Jubair and Owen Flowers who are both charged with the TransportForLondon cyberattack, pleaded not guilty in Southwark Crown Court in London today. The judge has set a trial date of June 8, 2026 for them, and they continue to be detained on remand.
Flowers is also charged with conspiring to damage the network of SSM Health Care Corporation and attempting to do the same to Sutter Health, both U.S. healthcare entities. He pleaded not guilty to those charges, too.
Jubair also faces an additional charge of not providing his password to investigators when they seized his devices.

NEW by me:
From bad to worse: Doctor Alliance hacked again by same threat actor
This is a bad #databreach in terms of the #PII and #PHI acquired by the hacker, "Kazu," who is about to leak it all.
Oof.Background: I reported on the first breach/attack a few days ago at https://databreaches.net/2025/11/12/doctor-alliance-data-breach-353gb-of-patient-files-allegedly-compromised-ransom-demanded/
When the CEO claimed it was all secured the same day, the hacker got ticked off and went back in and hacked them again.
