November 6, 2024 cyberelias 0 Comments 1 tag

A hacker group known as “Grep” has reportedly infiltrated Schneider Electric’s internal project tracking system, stealing about 40 GB of data in the latest cyberattack targeting the French multinational.

Grep, which has rebranded itself as the “Hellcat ransomware gang,” claimed it gained access to Schneider’s Atlassian Jira server using exposed credentials, allowing it to scrape 400,000 rows of sensitive user data.

The data reportedly includes names and email addresses of both employees and customers, alongside project files and other critical details.
