Taiwanese chip maker ADATA fell victim to a RansomHouse cyberattack after the threat actors began posting stolen files on their data leak site.
The RansomHouse gang added ADATA files to their data leak and claimed that they stole 1TB worth of documents in a 2022 cyberattack.
The threat actors also leaked samples of allegedly stolen files, which appear to belong to the company.
ADATA retained information security experts and implemented effective methods to set up a strong protection.
