Clop Ransomware Publishes Confidential Police Data

Industry: Law Enforcement & Technology | Level: Strategic | Source: InfoSecurity

As reported by "The Mail" on December 19th, 2021, the Clop ransomware gang compromised IT services provider Dacoll in October 2021, and was able to obtain data from a police nation computer (PNC). The threat group posted the data on the dark web after Dacoll had refused to pay the ransom demand. Data from the leak included images of motorists who were captured by the UK’s National Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system.
